Our Vision

The vision for Keepers of the Old Ways came when I was volunteering on the board at the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement. While I was there I was able to learn and see in action how our ancestors lived. Being a homesteader myself and having the passion to live more like my ancestors and be more self-sufficient gave me the idea of an event that teaches this. I wanted an event that would incorporate history and the way we live now. An event that could help teach people how our ancestors lived and use some of the conveniences we have today as part of our lives. Now 4 years later, we have been blessed to see this event growing as we have needed to move from Blountstown Florida, at the Panhandle Pioneer Settlement, to 

Landmark Park in Dothan Alabama. As we continue on this journey, we have truly enjoyed witnessing so many coming to learn to live like their ancestors, learn new skills, and have a more self-sufficient lifestyle, while building a community of fellowship and encouragement the way God designed the world to be.
