MEDIA RELEASE__On Saturday, June 14, the Swiss Community Historical Society will host a blacksmithing demonstration by Keith Sommer, SCHS curator. This is the first of three Second Saturday events to be held at the homestead in 2025.
Blacksmithing was a once-common task at the Schumacher Homestead. Sommer will work with various blacksmith tools for hammering, punching and welding wrought iron and steel, while using a forge fire to heat the metal to “white hot” before shaping into the desired end result.
