Mule Day

Mule Day MULE DAY - Washington, Georgia's Southern Heritage Festival
October 10, 2026 // 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM So what's Mule Day? Wait, there's more!

The Mule was the original "tractor" for early American farms. Imagine being without your car; that's how vital the Mule was for early farmers. At one time, Wilkes County was home to over 9000 (yes, nine thousand) mules. Mule Day activities include Plowing Demonstrations, and a Mule Obstacle Challenge. Live music, art and craft vendors, demonstrations of blacksmithing, woodworking, soap making and

cornhusk weaving. There's a Quilt show at the old schoolhouse, a turpentine still, magic elixirs, food vendors, old tractors, activities for kids, and more. Mule Day - a Southern Heritage Festival, started in 1981 as a fundraiser for the Washington-Wilkes Chamber of Commerce. Since then, it has grown into Wilkes County's largest annual festival. We look forward to having you join us for a day of fun at the Callaway Plantation.
