The Ashland project

We are organizing a community-led archaeological investigation of Henry Clay’s former 600+ acre plantation landscape, including present-day Woodland Park.This project relies on the voices, perspectives, and active participation of local community members, descendants, researchers, and park visitors alike.Whether your interest is cultural, historical, educational, or personal, we invite you to help guide our research goals, participate in the process, and share in the discoveries.Together, we can reclaim local narratives, honor those who lived and labored on this land, and build a more inclusive history. Get involved today and help shape the future of our past!
