By Karl Pass - September 15, 2023
The Gathering on the Farm at Gettysburg is a country and primitive antiques show that will be held Saturday, Oct. 7, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The show takes place at 1042 Bullfrog Road in Fairfield, Pa., about 10 minutes from downtown Gettysburg. Admission is free of charge. The show is a tented rain or shine event. A living history group called The Lancaster County Long Rifles will set up an encampment on the show grounds with campfire cooking, archery and black powder rifle demos. There will also be live music at the show. The Gathering on the Farm show is held on the property of Linda and Joe Bowden. The log portion of the house dates to 1740, and the stone, to 1830. In 1930, an addition was added to the stone portion. Among the outbuildings is a traders cabin, which dates to 1720. From the 1730s into the 1740s, it was a dwelling for Swedish explorer Hans Steelman, an Indian trader and interpreter.
