Join renowned landscape artist Robert A. Tino and his artisan and craftsmen friends to celebrate the fall season. The farm grounds are full of activities for kids of all ages. The festival begins at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, September 30 and will be open the weekend from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.

See farm animals, antique tractors, and authentic Appalachian Arts & Crafts. There’s a special Children’s Area (for the real kids) with a Pick n’ Paint Pumpkin Patch and Art Lessons.

It’s not a true Smoky Mountain Homecoming without lots of bluegrass music and mountain storytelling; well worry not, because there’ll be a gracious plenty of both at this harvest festival!
