What started out as an effort to get busy travelers off Interstate highways and traveling through the small areas of Kentucky, Tennessee, and
Alabama has turned into a huge annual event which is recognized nationwide. If you are a shopper, you will find treasures all along the way from fresh farm produce, to home-made quilts, wood crafts, antiques, and lots of country cooking. Last year's sale saw over 3,100 vendors! It is estimated that over 10,000 people participated in some way. WATCH FOR SPECIAL FESTIVALS, EVENTS, & ATTRACTIONS
