A Visit to Shaker Village


My husband and I along with my in laws and cousins went to visit the Shaker Village in Pleasant Hill, KY.  We walked the land, visited the houses, learned the history of the Shakers, petted cats, goats, & horses, and went on a riverboat cruise.  We had a traditional Shaker’s meal consisting of chicken croquettes in mushroom wine sauce, fresh green beans from the garden, mashed potatoes, fresh cole slaw, tiny corn cakes with butter, and squash soup made with veggies from the garden.  It was a peaceful day of laughter and learning, along with   some reminiscing.    I was able to observe some of the Shakers' quilts.  I hope you enjoy the pictures.  I recommend a visit to Shaker’s Village.
