Kid’s Nature Village is a natural play space where children can connect with the world around them. Dozens of booths sell art and handcrafts from Georgia and all over the world. Opportunities abound all weekend to learn more about the biodiversity of the Southern Appalachians with guided nature walks, live animals, story telling, and environmental education activities.
