Kenan's Mill Festival 2009


If you like music, fresh cornmeal, wagon rides and crafts, then come on out to the Kenan's Mill Fall Festival this Saturday, Nov. 7.

The 1860's gristmill will be grinding corn into meal and grits as Valley Creek meanders its way beneath the swinging bridge and over the spillway.

The bluegrass menu features young fiddler Caleb Bryant of Northport and the Hurricane Creek band. Music starts at 11, and there will be food vendors to supply your appetite as well as cornbread and chili cookoffs.

Try your hand at making pottery from Alabama clay, and visit the craft booths. Tour the mill house and charcoal kiln.

It's going to be a beautiful day for an outing, so bring your lawn chairs and enjoy! Gates open at 9 a.m. and close at 5 p.m. Cost is only $5 per car. The mill is located just north of the Selma city limits off County Road 37 (Summerfield Road).
