Cane Hill Harvest Festival

Cane Hill Harvest Festival is held on the third week of September on the historic Cane Hill College, which later became University of the Ozarks. This slideshow shows the Historic Cane Hill Festival focusing on its connection with University of the Ozarks’ history. 

 

Cane Hill, named like that because of the dense growth of Bamboo Cane, is the home of the first establishment that would become the University of the Ozarks. Dr. McFarland, a communication professor at University of the Ozarks, took her Critical Inquiry class to the Annual Cane Hill Harvest Festival to show them the foundation of our university. The Cane Hill Harvest Festival is held on the grounds of the historic Cane Hill College and it takes place the third week of September. This slideshow portrays the colorful festival and its farmland community.
