Good Ol’ Days Folk Festival at Homeland Heritage Park

Saturday, May 6, the historic buildings at Homeland Heritage Park will open their doors to a day of food, contests and events with a live marketplace featuring historic trade showcases and handcrafted goods for sale. From our event stage, we’ll be joined by musical trio Ramblin’ Rose to play live folk and country music.

Feeling competitive? Experienced whip crackers can compete in our annual whip cracking contest starting at 12:30pm!

Also, this year’s festival will include our annual corn shucking contest! Try your hand to see if you can outpace the competition
