Take your family back in time to the site of one of the earliest and most beautiful colonial-era plantations of the Georgia coast.

Highlights of this weekend-long event include cannon and musket firing; blacksmithing, craft, and cooking demonstrations; Native American and slave life interpretations; and period music and dance. An hourly schedule of events will be available upon arrival at Wormsloe. Free and open to the public
