Every year we fill all 6 stages and time slots, that’s over 170 performances, and unfortunately have to turn performers away. But that doesn't stop them from just showing up with their instruments and joining in a jam or workshop. With two workshop tents and two jam tents music is abundant! We would like to thank all of the talented teachers who volunteer their time to run these tents.
The old time barn dance in the school house is a foot stompin' good time and good clean fun for the whole family. Live callers and bands make it a dance to remember.
The very popular "Lil' Abner Fiddle Hunt", our painted rocks and a visit to our farm are favorites for kids of all ages. Storytellers tell their tales all day both days at the storyteller tent.
