  The Humpback Rocks Mountain Farm (Parkway milepost 6) shares the stories of Appalachian Families that lived in the area during the 1890s. One of their many traditions was to gather together to work, play, celebrate, mourn, socialize, and enjoy each other's company. Please join us this summer to learn about and carry on, these mountain traditions. 

  Our outdoor stage is set under the picturesque Black Walnut tree just as you enter the farm.
