Flint ridge for rock
« on: July 19, 2011, 10:13:02 pm »
I'm going to be passing through OH on 70 later this week and wanted to get some input/info on stopping and picking up some flint ridge. I remember Leapingbare mentioning Nethers Farm in the past, but thought I would tap into the vast knowledge here on where to go from others that are near or have been. Never been and hate to be going through there and not stopping to check it out. Thanks for any info!

Nethers Farm is the place I havent been yet but lots of my friends go..Basically ask they dig a hole and u pay... It isnt always easy and u will be tired..Good luck!

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!

Thanks for the info Russ and Curt. I spoke with Ed Mosher here and he said if I was short on time to go to Gary Hardy farm and pay a little for what he's got collected and heated. I'm taking a pit stop on a short family vacation, but will stop at the park museum to check out the history since it's not far off the path.
