This Labor Day weekend, August 30-31, the Homeplace is celebrating the hard labor and hand work skills of our ancestors during our Trades Fair.  At a time when few things were manufactured, people had to rely on their skills or their neighbors to produce everything from knitted socks to horseshoes.  Visit this weekend with local traditional trades and craft people as they share their skills and knowledge of these lost folk arts.  Hand crafted items will be available for purchase.

Vendors will only be accepting cash for purchases.
