About this event

The Stories from the Pumpkin Patch will feature several storytellers from the Jonesborough International Story Tellers Guild. These storytellers will be telling tales of old folk lore, Fall time stories, and good family fables. During the daylight hours, various Fall and Halloween crafts will be available for kids. There will be various Halloween themed face paintings at $2 for children of all ages. If you dare, visitors can explore the site’s ancient and spooky cave. A hayride around the site will be provided by Johnson City Kubota. Hot apple cider will be heated to perfection and served out of the mid-nineteenth century George Haynes cabin. The Tipton-Haynes house will be open for visitors to leisurely stroll through the historic halls and rooms. Several local vendors will be selling their homemade crafts while food trucks will allow visitors to have a picnic.

Admission $8 for adults | $5 for children 12 and under | Tipton-Haynes members are free
