Learn more about Swiss Heritage Celebration.
Besides enjoying polka music, dancing, and Swiss wine, Swiss Heritage Celebration visitors can glimpse rural life in the late 1800s by touring the historic farmhouse and viewing its furnishings, documents, memorabilia, and quilts. Attendees can purchase soaps, crafts, handmade children’s toys, mountain plants, and herbs. Local artisans will demonstrate soapmaking, woodworking, carding, and weaving of alpaca wool.
Children will enjoy jumping in the bouncy house and swinging on a tire swing. Kids of all ages can ride a flag-festooned wagon around the grounds.
Vendors will sell beverages, bratwurst, sandwiches, canned goods, fried pies, and baked goods, including Swiss cookies and Springerle cookies. A highlight of the day is always the tasting booth featuring locally made wine and cheese.
