Smokehouse Dedication

Join the Chatham Historical Museum on Saturday, March 25th at 12:30 pm at the Chatham County Agriculture & Conference Center for the Dedication of the Smokehouse and the 4th Annual Spring Ag Fest. We’ll be sharing some of the structure’s unique history and thanking the many donors who made restoration of the smokehouse possible.

You can also visit the smokehouse during our Open House from 10 until 2. We’ll be raffling off ham—so be sure to stop and see us!
The Smokehouse was an existing structure on the property scheduled for construction of the Chatham County Agriculture and Conference Center. The Chatham County Historical Association removed the smokehouse from the site and stored it during the construction of the new Ag Center building, then rebuilt it and returned it to the property where it had originally stood so younger generations can be shown how their ancestors lived.
