The American Heritage Festival

Last weekend, I attended the American Heritage Festival, a three-day event held in the open fields of Schnepf Farms. Reenactors hold staged Revolutionary War and Civil War battles, set up camp and model period fashions. The kids really liked writing with a quill and ink at the school house and climbing on a WWII Army truck. The mountain man, with his collection of pelts, was another favorite, especially with my younger nieces and nephews.

The American Heritage Festival is held every November. It's a cash-only event, and I didn't see any ATMs, so come prepared. Speaking of being prepared, dress appropriately. You never know what to expect in November. Temperatures were chilly to begin with, then it started raining, but by the end of our visit, it was sunny and somewhat warm. Plan accordingly.
