Mile Branch Settlement is open only twice each year during the Washington Parish Fair in the third week of October and during the Pioneer Christmas celebration\, held the first weekend of December. \n \nAbout 150 years ago\, a small community in Washington Parish would have looked a lot like this. These log cabin homes were built by real Louisiana pioneers. The historical Mile Branch Settlement is located on the Washington Parish Fairgrounds in Franklinton\, LA. When a visitor steps through the unpainted picket fence and walks past the Richardson Gatehouse\, it is like entering another time period. A time where life coursed much slower like the bordering creek for which the settlement was named. You will find 19th century attired volunteers serving sassafras tea with gingerbread\, grinding corn into meal or grits\, cutting huge hoop-cheese slices\, and the extracting and cooking of cane syrup. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Mile Branch Settlement Christmas on the first weekend in December at the Mile Branch Settlement Christmas located at the Washington Parish Fairgrounds in Franklinton\, Louisiana. \n \nTags: Mile Branch Settlement Christmas\, Mile Branch Settlement \nView Other Living History Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/mile-branch-settlement-christmas/ LOCATION:Mile Branch Settlement\, Par Rd 505\, Franklinton\, LA\, 70438\, United States CATEGORIES:Battle Reenactments & Encampments,History Festivals,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Mile-Branch-Settlement-Christmas-10-1000x667.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20181102T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20181103T170000 DTSTAMP:20260613T213756 CREATED:20160820T234508Z LAST-MODIFIED:20171105T163642Z UID:7416-1541149200-1541264400@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Historic Washington State Park Civil War Weekend DESCRIPTION:2018 Historic Washington State Park Civil War Weekend\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nHear cannons roar as the Historic Washington State Park Civil War Weekend Reenactment begins on November 2-3\, 2018 in Washington\, Arkansas.
