Hamlett-Dobson Farm Fest will provide old-fashioned family fun on Sunday, July 20, from 2-5 p.m. at Exchange Place Living History Farm, 4812 Orebank Road in Kingsport.

Sponsored by Hamlett-Dobson Funeral Homes and Exchange Place, Farm Fest celebrates the pleasures of country life. Step back into the nineteenth century and enjoy fresh summer food, join in activities from bygone days like sack races, hayrides, and cakewalks. Listen to music on traditional instruments, pet the farm animals, and try your hand at old time crafts. Small children will enjoy washing clothes on the washboard and jumping in the haystack.

No ticket or registration is required. A shuttle bus will run from Mountain View United Methodist Church to Farm Fest from 1:45 to 5:15 p.m. to ease parking congestion.

This event is free and open to the public.
