The first Village Festival of the year made its debut on April 6, 2014, just 1.5 miles from the community entrance on Steve Tate Highway. Now, each Saturday marks a day of shopping for kitchen necessities and treats for the whole family. While produce is in abundance at this market, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. visitors and residents living in this gated mountain community have a wide variety of merchandise to select. Vendors and merchants come to this market to show off their goods like: artisan oils and vinegars, specialty cheeses, canned goods, pastries, pies, fresh meats, pure honey, soaps and plenty of arts and crafts.

The Village Festival is a win/win for the residents of Big Canoe. The event venue is located at a convenient spot with ample parking and vendor aisles. The vendors are treated like family and the customers return each week to show their support. More than 60 vendors are expected to be in attendance throughout the season, and this event is piquing interests of shopping fanatics deciding where to retire in Georgia in 2014.

For those that want the scoop on the community, Big Canoe’s features are sure to interest those that prefer not to shop until they drop. Between sparkling lakes and eight sky-high mountains, lies the town of Big Canoe.
