Heritage Day Fall Festival

The Daniel Boone Homestead Associates are excited to celebrate the arrival of fall with the Homestead’s annual Heritage Day event. Heritage Day features a variety of colonial and early American demonstrations, trades, and hands-on activities. This year’s highlights include blacksmithing and gunsmithing, candle dipping and quill pen writing, leatherworking, open hearth cooking, spinning, and an eighteenth-century fashion display. Plus, Stone House History will be returning this year with their tape weaving and wood carving demonstrations. The event also includes a variety of artisan craft and specialty food vendors plus fall activities for children like pumpkin painting.
The Boone House and the Bertolet Log House will be open for tours as well. And because one event is not enough and we want to keep celebrating America250 all year long, we’ll be expanding this year’s Heritage Day to include some 250th-themed demonstrations and activities. Check back for more details as they become available.
