Last year's events were a success with more than 1,500 in attendance. This years special events at "HERITAGE DAYS" hopefully will be BIGGER AND BETTER. We are a 4th Generation Farm Family interested in keeping the art of molasses making alive for the coming generations to appreciate. You can witness first hand how we take the cane and follow the cooking process from start to finish as molasses are made. While you're there you can tour the "Turn of the Century" farm site and enjoy the beautiful country side while also visiting Mt. Harmony United Methodist Church & Cemetary which is located approximately 1/2 mile from our farm.
