HISTORY & HERITAGE
Historic Brownstown, along Black Rock Road, was settled after emancipation. Descendants of these early families have gathered annually for years, at local homes, to celebrate their shared heritage.
Button Farm is honored to host this event for the 4th year to accommodate more participants. We welcome all from the area!
The event will feature a history table with photos and objects from the area, focused on the history of Black Rock Rd, Brownstown and the greater Germantown area. We welcome photos, artifacts or stories from your family you wish to share.
