The Willard Formation, also referred to as Willard Shale, is a Late-Carboniferous geologic formation in Kansas, extending into Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, and Oklahoma.[2][1]

The full face of the formation is exposed for easy access on the north bank of Deep Creek at the public park, Pillsbury Crossing, in southeast Riley County, Kansas,[4] about 25 miles (40 km) west of the type location at Willard, Kansas.[3]

The Willard formation, named from a village in Shawnee County, Kansas, was differentiated by Beede in 1898. In some reports of the Kansas Geological Survey an error in correlation of units appears, but the Willard is now recognized as the shale between the Elmont and Tarkio limestones.
