The Fort Towson Historic Site will hold its quarterly Dutch Oven Gathering on Saturday, August 23, from 9 a.m. to noon. The event is FREE for participants and guests. All are welcome to participate in this informal event, which is led by a group of cooks.

The talents of local cast iron chefs will be on display at the Fort Towson Historic Site, with each person setting up their outdoor kitchen and preparing delicious treats. The event will be a time for Dutch oven enthusiasts to gather for fellowship, demonstrate Dutch oven cooking skills, and introduce the public to the joy of outdoor cooking in cast iron. Registration is required for those who plan to cook. Small samples of the cooked food will be available to those who attend.

For anyone who wants to learn more about the art of Dutch oven cooking, this event will be the perfect time to watch and learn.
