Ramsey House Plantation September 14, 2012 - The 48th Annual Country Market will take place this year on September 22nd, from 10am to 4pm at Historic Ramsey House, located at 2614 Thorn Grove Pike in Knoxville. This years event will feature a classic car show as well as all day music and entertainment, wagon rides to a pumpkin patch, arts & crafts, antique dealers, fall decorating items, mums, herbs, old fashion ice cream & cobblers, and kettle corn. Mrs. Ramsey's kitchen will be serving hot dogs, beans and corn bread and the popular Wallace Bar-B-Q. We will be featuring appraisals by Joe Rossen and Darryl Mackley. This year we have invited Community Service Groups to join us. We will have the Knox Co Sheriffs Dept, American Red Cross, Random Acts of Flowers, and Second Harvest. Please bring your giving hearts and non perishable foods to donate. We will be selling raffle tickets for a hand pieced reproduction Civil War quilt (queen size) by Mildred Dugan that will be raffled off in December during our Candlelight Tour of the Historic Home. What a great Christmas gift! Admission to the event is a $5.00 parking fee. Tours of the home will be conducted by docents in period dress and will be available for $5.00 per person. All proceeds from this fund raiser will go toward continuing our mission to educate, preserve, and interpret the history and cultural life of early Tennessee and the important role of the Ramsey family.
