Fans from at least 30 states are also planning to attend.
It is being put on by the Columbia Chamber of Commerce and Prairie Legacy Productions. The three-day event will celebrate the television series, allow fans to connect with Little House stars, and showcase filming locations in Columbia and at Railtown 1897, where numerous scenes were shot for episodes during the show’s original run from 1974-1983.
