Hoover Ridge Wool & Wine Festival

Madison County Parks and Recreation Authority is hosting the fifth annual Wool and Wine Festival in Madison County on Saturday, April 23, 2022, from 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM. Unfortunately, the organization in charge of the sheepdog trials canceled the trials, so we will not have the sheepdog trials for 2022.

We will be showcasing local wineries including Prince Michel Vineyards, DuCard Vineyards, Blue Quartz Winery, and Revalation Vineyards! We will also have vendors Hebron Lights, Hilda's Crafts, Heidi Kulp Photography, Abigail Treece - Things Clay & Wool, MadCats, and Grabinska Studio. Local food vendor Hidden Acres Farm Kitchen will also be on site.

Free Union will provide live entertainment from 1:00-4:00 PM.
We will have a supervised children's area with activities and a bounce house!

Vendors include Hebron Lights, Hilda's Crafts, Heidi Kulp Photography, Abigail Treece - Things Clay and Wool, MadCats, and more! Be sure to stop by and see what they all have to offer!
