The plantation is in Surry County, VA and as you can see below, they are going to have lots to do for all of you ...Bring your children and your dogs, bring chairs, the children can build a scarecrow and paint a pumpkin or make a doll and Vendors will be there, to include us! This year we will have our lighted bottles, of course, Sugar and spice sugar scrubs for your whole body to include your face, which are really good Christmas Presents, Crocheted soap holders for the shower, I hate it when you shower and you drop the soap, these prevent that, plus help exfoliate your skin! We are not bringing jewelry this time because it is outside and our earrings tend to sway in the breeze and fall on the ground ...so we shall save those for inside. We have made a lot of Christmas ornaments this year, you have to see them!!! So come on ...get dressed Saturday morning and come on to see us at Chippokes Plantation ...we will be under our blue tent ..., of course they may be a lot of blue tents, but just look for me and Peggy Sue and Doug...Hope to see you all there !!!!!
Chippokes Harvest Celebration - October 15th 2016, 11am to 5pm
Celebrate the Harvest at one of the oldest, continually farmed plantations in the nation. Chippokes' Third Annual Harvest Celebration features the music of the William & Mary Appalachian Music Ensemble. Build a scarecrow, paint a pumpkin, create a corn husk doll, play a round of corn hole, and take a hay ride. Shop the craft vendors and re-energize yourself at the food vendor tables. See antique harvest equipment in operation and watch costumed interpreters cook on the hearth in the 1854 Brick Kitchen, weave baskets, spin thread, and cane chairs. Tours of the antebellum Jones-Stewart Mansion and the Farm & Forestry Museum are included in the $5.00/per vehicle park admission fee. Rain or Shine.
Cost is the $5 vehicle park entrance fee.
