Description of Event:

The festival has always been family (and pet) friendly and this year we will be adding other interesting elements for all ages!

CRAFTERS…Over 100 local and Regional Artisans throughout the grounds and two (2) buildings.

CANINE OBSTACLE COURSE…Since we are pet friendly, this new fun-to-watch and fun-to-participate
activity is our new fun element for our four-legged friends.

KIDZONE AREA with INFLATABLES…always popular, always fun! An area just for the kids with a Zorb Ball, Giant Slide, Obstacle and Bounce House, face painting and other fun activities.

ANTIQUE CAR SHOW AND BINGO…both did very well and the 2018 festival will offer an even larger car show and bingo area.

TAP & CORK TASTING (HARD CIDERS & CRAFT BEERS)…Very popular addition to the festival.
Artisans from throughout the region will be added to the lineup of festival activities. Must be 21 and over
with ID required. Tasting fee extra. Live entertainment nearby makes this a can’t miss attraction!

APPLE PIE EATING CONTEST HOSTED BY WHITE HOUSE/NATIONAL FRUIT…What would an apple harvest festival be without the popular apple pie eating contest?  Center stage, Sunday at 2pm!

APPLE PIE BAKING CONTEST/FREE APPLE…Another got-to-have crowd pleaser!  This brings in a lot of school age children and their families to watch while the judges sample the variety of homemade pies in the apple theme booth. The Apple Theme Arena is where you can get a free apple and apple cider.  Meet
representatives of the Virginia Old Time Apple Growers Association and the Alson Smith VA Tech
Research Lab, ask questions and see the over 60 varieties of apples on display.

APPLE BUTTER MAKING…Made fresh on-site. Almost guaranteed your purchase will still be warm!

LIVE ENTERTAINMENT… Continuous entertainment featuring The Shockers, Robbie Limon, The
Wayfarers, The Judy Chops and Jimmy Lee…all family friendly.
