Celebrate the rich heritage of the Great Smoky Mountains and turn back the clock at the Blue Ribbon County Fair. This event hosted by The Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center revives days of yore with an old-fashioned style fair. Events include open hearth cooking, weaving, spinning, blacksmithing and numerous types of livestock. Don’t miss old timey games like the “Ladies Skillet Throw,” and let your children experience “Farmer in the Cove” with hands on experience learning farming chores such as gathering eggs, corning shelling, planting crops and much more.
