The Fort Towson Historic Site will host a hominy-making workshop with David Fowler on Saturday, September 13, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Participants will learn to make hominy using the traditional Cherokee method. Hominy was a staple in the 19th-century diet because corn was widely available. Processing it into hominy boosted the nutritional value, preserved it, and made for a delicious meal.

The workshop will include various food items, including grain, corn, and mammal products. If you have questions about specific allergens, call 580-873-2634.
