There are so many hidden treasures all throughout the great state of Kentucky that it would take a lifetime to explore them all. Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill, outside of Harrodsburg, is an underrated asset to Kentucky’s rich history and a hidden gem that is begging to be discovered. Even if you’ve heard of this historic community, perhaps you’ve never visited. Or maybe you have, but it’s been awhile. Either way, one stop during your visit should be to dine at The Trustees’ Table. Though it has seen some recent changes, this traditional restaurant is still a worthy place to visit for a fresh meal, beautiful surroundings and a bit of history.

Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill is a Kentucky destination of 3,000 acres that demonstrate the spirit of the Kentucky Shakers.

The Village is located in the picturesque, rolling hills of Kentucky, making it a beautiful spot to visit all year long. And nestled within the community, within the former Trustees' Office, is a lovely restaurant that perfectly demonstrates the ideals of the area.
Today, the restaurant offers what they call "seed-to-table" dining, where everything is fresh and seasonally planned.
