Every fall, join us for the celebration of "The Lord's Acre Harvest Festival" in historic French Camp, located just off the Natchez Trace Parkway. Since the first Harvest Festival on October 25, 1952, people have been coming to French Camp, Mississippi on the second Saturday in October to give thanks, celebrate life, and enjoy small-town living.

Highlights of the day include the auction held in the Cain-Patterson Gymnasium at French Camp Academy. From quilts to homemade preserves to locally painted works of art, all items are designated to raise funds for the Academy and community churches. At noon, there is a famous dinner-on-the-grounds, where you can bring your own family dishes to share. If you can't bring a dish, there are donation boxes available.

For more information about this year's Harvest Festival, call (662) 547-6482.

This event is open to the public and there is no entry fee.
