Wish I knew about this but saw no advertisement about it or no listing under events! Where is it located? Is it a once a year event?

Liked looking through the museum and old time kitchen with the ice box and old stove.

This was my first year attending, and I have to say, the Gabbert family is one of the most generous, friendly, outgoing group of folks you’ll meet this side of the Mason Dixon! They truly never meet a stranger! The festival itself was a blast! Looking forward to next year!

The Gabbert family did a superb job with this event. Very accommodating, from Visitor to Vendor. They thought of everything that could make this Festival grand for all ages!
This was my first year as a Vendor and I look forward to many years to come.

Have never ever seen a festival that big. It was huge. So big, that parking was a challenge. But, there were people helping some with that. There was a shuttle taking people from their cars if they parked far off down the road and if one braved the road all the way to the festival location, people were waving people into a big parking area, which was also a challenge once you were in there. It was SO hot. But, there was plenty to eat and plenty to drink, newer porta potties and even a hand washing station nearby. I have never seen such a huge event with so much to see and do. Congratulations to whoever organized such an event. They sure pulled off an amazing feat. They seem to have thought of everything. Who knew they would need cooling stations in October? !!!! That would have been a great thing to have there yesterday. ……………. like misting fans everywhere.. People seemed friendly and well behaved. I had no idea that I was going to an event that was on such a grand scale. So kudos to the organizers and those who did all the work. I really like Jay Florida.
