SUMMARY:Historic Johnson Farm Christmas Tours

Mugs\, ornaments\, and magnets with the farm logo will be for sale along with stickers with the farm’s animals. The popular children’s book about the farm\, Winston the Farm Dog: A History of Historic Johnson Farm\, will be for sale as well. The Heritage Weavers and Fiber Artists gift shop will be stocked full of handmade fiber gifts. \nThe farmhouse was built by hand from 1876-1880. It is believed to be the oldest standing brick home in Henderson County. The Christmas season was a special time for Johnson family members\, who were known for their generosity.  Their home was among the first in our county to get electricity.  For many Christmas seasons\, they placed their tree decorated with colorful lights on the front porch. Travelers enjoyed the glow of the display to and from town in the evenings. Throughout the year and especially at holidays\, Sallie Johnson was known for her delicious cakes.  The farm grounds were plush with greenery that was gathered to decorate their home. The celebration of Christmas was much simpler then.   \nThe Christmas tours are important for the non-profit foundation that operates a heritage education center as part of Henderson County Public Schools. Events like this provide a significant portion of the farm’s operating expenses and educational experiences.  \nThe farm was a gift to the schoolchildren and the community by the late Vernon and Leander Johnson.  It is owned by Henderson County Public Schools\, and is managed by an Executive Director and the Historic Johnson Farm Foundation\, Inc.  It was designated a NC Cultural Treasure. The farm is located at 3346 Haywood Road in Hendersonville\, NC 28739.  \nFor more information\, call the farm foundation office at 828-891-6585.
