People once traveled from all over to Red Boiling Springs, where the town’s natural mineral waters were said to cure everything from rheumatism to diabetes. Today, the town about 75 miles northeast of Nashville honors its history and the restorative power of nature with the annual Folk Medicine Festival.

On June 9, 2020, farmers, musicians, artists, storytellers and healing arts practitioners alike will celebrate on the banks of Salt Lick Creek. The festival features educational sessions, a quilt show, children’s activities, food and much more. For more details, visit vision2020inc.com.
