Guests will delight in lots of live music and story telling with Joyce Carroll, JB and the Honeybeans, Richard Spain, The Bearded, Ras Alan, Oona Love and Friends, and Sonja and her youth dance team while enjoying food cooked by at risk teens involved in Rural Resources' Farm and Food Training Project. The food comes from local farms, and will be made by the teens with supervision from local chef Mary Goldman.
There will also be demonstrations throughout the day on wool spinning, planting by the signs, fruit tree pruning, stock dog herding, dividing perennials, processing jellies and jams, herbs used in cooking and for medicine, bamboo instruments, and organic gardening.The kids will enjoy games to celebrate our fall harvest with face painting, pumpkin toss, pin the tail on the cow, hay ride, painting pumpkins, and a petting zoo with a variety of farm animals including a couple of baby calves.
The Farm Arts Festival is sponsored by the USDA Community Food Project, East Tennessee Foundation Arts Fund, and The Tennessee Arts Commission.
