Foxfire Heritage Days
June 5 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
$5 – $20
Fourteen blacksmiths at the forge. Black powder rifle history. Pottery on the wheel. Butter in the churn. Woodstove cooking, canning, weaving, flint knapping, basketry, small engines, music, children’s activities, and barbecue from Blue Hound Barbecue.
What makes Heritage Days special is where it happens! The demonstrations aren’t in booths; they’re spread throughout our historic village, inside and around the cabins, porches, and grounds. Families can wander the village, hear the forge, smell what’s cooking, and see what daily work looked like when these skills were still part of everyday life.
For two days, demonstrators will share the skills, stories, and hands-on Appalachian traditions that have shaped life for generations. Families can also visit the Children’s Village, where kids can make something, try activities, ask questions, with plenty of space to run around.
Live music both days from 11am to 1pm featuring Jake McCrackin!
Admission: $20 adults · $15 seniors 62+ · $10 ages 11–18 · $5 ages 6–10 · free for ages 5 and under
