27th Annual Trotwood-Madison Historical Society
IAMS PIONEER HARVEST FEST
Saturday October 10, 2026. 10 AM to 5PM.

The Trotwood-Madison Historical Society was chartered in 1979 as an organization to record and preserve our local history.
The Iams Pioneer Harvest Fest is our way of honoring our farming heritage through our version of an antique corn harvest reunion. Preparations for the event begin in the spring with the planting of our on-site corn field. By the second Saturday in October the corn is ready for harvesting. Members and friends gather with their antique tractors and farm equipment to demonstrate a corn harvest of the 1930’s, 40’s and 50’s.
We have displays, including our 1929 cottage style Trotwood Trailer and children’s activities in the barn, corn binding in the field, to***co growing/harvesting information, and demonstrations of our International Harvester Corn Husker/Shredder. There also is a scenic hayride through the field and woods. Iron kettle cooked chili over an open fire and hot dogs are available for a donation. The Iams Homestead Museum will be open for your viewing with Trotwood displays and the Country Store will have gently used items for sale.
Come! Bring the family for a glimpse of how our parents and grandparents gathered for the Fall Harvest. This is a community event that takes place Saturday October 10, from 10 AM to 5 PM on our 6.5 acre site located at 349 S. Broadway Street, Trotwood Ohio 45426.
Join us! We welcome new members to help the T-M Historical Society “Preserve the Past for the Future”.
