About this event

Step into rural Florida in the 1870s at the annual Cane Boil and Fiddle Fest, where traditional folk music and living history bring the era to life. Watch sugar cane grinding and syrup-making demonstrations, sample fresh cane syrup and biscuits, and see historic farming skills practiced by costumed interpreters. Browse local vendors, enjoy traditional games and crafts, and visit the Living History Farm’s log cabin and heritage livestock. Local musicians provide a soundtrack of old-time fiddle music throughout the festivities. This family-friendly fall tradition offers a glimpse into rural Florida’s past. Pets are not permitted in the park.
