Free admission to the Yule Log Ceremony (4:15pm)
Exchange Place ushers in the holiday season with Christmas in the Country. Fresh greenery, handcrafted wreaths and roping, unique folk arts and handcrafts, and traditional holiday foods will be for sale. The celebration also features hands-on opportunities for all ages and demonstrations of wintertime activities on the 1850s farmstead, as volunteers make ginger cakes and cinnamon waffles, dip candles, and craft ironware in the forge. The Yule Log ceremony at the end of the festival offers a chance to participate in an age-old Christmas tradition, sing carols, sip wassail, and encourage luck for the New Year.
The mission of Exchange Place Living History Farm is to preserve and interpret the heritage of mid-19th century farm life in Northeast Tennessee. A private, non-profit organization, Exchange Place is maintained and operated primarily by volunteers and is supported by donations, fundraisers, memberships, and grants.
