Did you know that Butler County was once home to a thriving 19th-century Amish community? Jeff Lehman, President of Friends of Chrisholm and a descendant of four of the community's families will talk about the origins of the Amish Mennonites in Butler County and their connection to the Chrisholm MetroPark Historic Farmstead. Learn about the community's growth, internal conflict and the eventual loss of its Amish affiliation. The historic Augspurger House will be open for tours following the talk.
