Join us for the 10th annual McCoy Farm & Gardens Memorial Day Picnic on Memorial Day.
A ceremony honoring our military begins at 11:30 am. Following will be lots of great music, food, and fun.
The House will be open for tours and don’t miss the antique and vintage china silent auction there as well. Outside, there will be arts and crafts, plants, sweet treats, and informational booths.
Take a ride in a tractor-pulled hay wagon and stop by the Blacksmith Shop to learn about this important activity on an early 20th century farm.
Food choices include hotdogs and hamburgers cooked by the Signal Mountain Lions Club, BBQ from Blue Sky, funnel cakes, and cotton candy. No admission charge. Hope to see you there!
