The Herb Workshop/Luncheon
- Date Saturday, February 5, 2022
- CANCELLED
This event has been cancelled due to the increase in Omicron infections in Michigan and nationwide. "We are cancelling it out of an abundance of caution, consideration for the people who might attend, and for our volunteer workers. We are hoping to have a better opportunity for it next year," said the organization’s president, Dee Camp. "The Herb Workshop is one of the Historical Society’s three major fund raisers," Camp said. "We hope people will continue to support our work through their donations which can be made online at this website or with a check made out to the Homer Historical Society and mailed to the organization at PO Box 146, Homer, MI 49245."

Annual Vintage Car and Truck Show
- Date Sunday, July 24, 2022
- Location Blair Historical Farm, one mile east of Homer on M-60
- Time TBA
- Details
The Vintage Car and Truck show has been held annually at Blair Historical Farm, and the 2021 event would have been the 20th one. It was cancelled out of concern and caution during the coronavirus pandemic. Please mark your calendar and stay tuned for the 2022 details of this popular event and fundraiser at Blair Historical Farm on the fourth Sunday in July. We are excited to be planning for it.
With the loss of potential revenue from the cancellation of the vintage car and truck show, Camp said the board of directors is asking for the community’s support. Donations can be made using the “donate now” button or by writing a check to the Homer Historical Society and mailing it to the Homer Historical Society, PO Box 146, Homer, MI 49245.
