Brinegar Days

Jul
18

These demonstrations and educational activities at the Brinegar Cabin and Homestead tell the story of the life of the Martin and Carolyn Brinegar family and their neighbors during the early settlement years in the Appalachian Mountains.

Local quilting guilds and historical societies will have displays and be on hand to answer questions. Caroline Brinegar’s skill with her loom and spinning wheel will be celebrated with a spinning bee and weaving demonstrations at the Brinegar Cabin. Activities continue the following Saturday.

Take the Blue Ridge Parkway to Mile Post 238.1 between its intersection with US 21 near Sparta, NC, and NC 18 near Laurel Springs, NC.
