You’re warmly invited to join us for an afternoon of good food, great company, and shared passion for preservation and history at our Annual Picnic — a heartfelt celebration of YOU! Join us at the picturesque Strawberry Fields Farm, a 50-acre haven nestled along the edge of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Named for the wild strawberries that flourish on the property, the farm is rich with history, featuring the historic 1853 Vallen family residence, an 1847 log cabin relocated from Salt Fork, a charming sugar shack, and a lovingly preserved 1880s barn rescued from demolition.
Members will have the special opportunity to tour the property starting at 1 p.m., kindly guided by the current owners and the son of the previous owners. After the tour, we’ll gather to break bread and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow preservation enthusiasts.
