4th Annual Sausage Festival
Nov 12 @ 11:00 am – 4:00 pm
Hickory Nut Gap Farm

Why should October have all the fun? It’s time to usher out the last of Autumn at our long-awaited 4th Annual Sausage Festival! A celebration of all thing’s sausage- sausage sales, sausage samples, sausage for sale off the grill, as well as hog butchery and sausage making demos brought to you by our butchery team.

WNC’s own Mountain Top Polka Band will be playing some high-octane Polka music to get your toes tapping! Since 2009, MTP has performed hundreds of events in six states around the south and southeast US, these guys are as entertaining as they are musically talented.

Family friendly games for fun and prizes, our now traditional Adults-Only-Musical Chairs Competition and both a kids and adults Costume Contest (think dirndl, lederhosen, Weiner-suit, get creative) with grand prizes of local food and activities! Local artist @FacePaintingAsheville will be there to paint faces and spread joy.

Food will be available for purchase during the event. Our crew will fire up the grill to serve up Pasture Raised Pork Sausages and Grassfed Beef Hot Dogs. Our favorite Kraut and Pickles repped by Fermenti Foods, a variety of mustards by Asheville’s own Lusty Monk Mustard, and of course Blunt Pretzels.

Can’t have sausages and pretzels without beer! We’ll be serving local beers, ciders, seltzers and non-alcoholic beverages to slake your thirst between Polkas, with a local brewery helping pour some serious pitcher specials of local suds.

A NOTE ABOUT SEATING: Our Big Barn has an official capacity of over 200- we do not have a seat for every single attendee but there will be picnic tables, cafe tables and benches available first come first serve. With this in mind, please feel free to bring picnic blankets or camp chairs. Tag!

PET POLICY: While we normally allow leashed pets on the grounds, we ask you leave your furry friends at home for this event.
