Blacksmith Day
October 11, 2025

On a pleasant fall day, many visitors enjoyed the Richfield Historical Society's 4th Blacksmith Day held at the Richfield Historical/Nature Park. About two dozen talented blacksmiths stoked their fires, hammered the hot metal and shaped it into a useful tool or a decorative item.
