Enjoy a day filled with wholesome family entertainment at our Fall Festival! Step back in time as we showcase age-old traditions like sorghum syrup making, blacksmithing, and operating our magnificent antique sawmill. Explore a diverse array of vendors and admire classic cars on display while our charming Country Store offers unique treasures waiting to be discovered. Delve into history by visiting our museum, schoolhouse, and farmhouse, or wander amidst the remnants of the Shelby Iron Company, once home to the largest charcoal blast furnace in the Southern United States. And when hunger strikes, enjoy mouthwatering hamburgers or hotdogs at our dining hall. Join us on the second Saturday in October for a day full of family fun!
