Whitetop Mountain Maple Festival
MARCH
Sweeten your spring with some
syrup. Start at Highland County,
Virginia, where the Highland Maple Festival on March 11-12 and
March 18-19 (highlandcounty.org)
comes served with arts and crafts,
history tours and, of course, plenty
of pancakes. In Pickens, West Virginia, you'll find another Maple
Syrup Festival on March 18 with
a quilt show and more crafts (pickenswv.com). And, just above the North
Carolina line, attend the Whitetop Mountain Maple Festival
on March 25-26 along U.S. Highway
58 (mtrogersvfd-rs.com) to tour the
maple orchard, hear bluegrass music
and savor some sausage and syrup
in southwest Virginia.
You can also rock in the March
madness of Rock City's Shamrock City, a celebration with all
things turned green. That includes
the waterfall of the iconic attraction at Lookout Mountain, Georgia. Taste Irish food and green beer
on March 11-12 and March 18-19
(seerockcity.com).

Dollywood's Festival of Nations in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee,
kicks off on March 18 and runs for
a month to showcase music, dance,
food and art of nations from around
the globe (dollywood.com). Then stay
in town and cuddle up at A Mountain Quiltfest in Pigeon Forge on
March 21-25 with quilting classes
and seminars (mypigeonforge.com).
Before March slips out like a lamb,
dare to don your dancing shoes at
the Surry Old Time Fiddlers
Convention, a weekend party on
March 31-April 1 with square dancing, folk songs, band contests and
workshops on the campus of Surry
Community College (surryoldtime.
com) in Dobson, North Carolina.

APRIL
Hungry? Well, come to West Virginia on April 8, and look for the
Lewisburg Chocolate Festival
as dozens of independent chocolatiers-and almost every store, business and restaurant-offer a tasty
chocolate treat in exchange for a
$1 ticket. Here, you can enjoy live
music, face-painting, a 10K Chocolate Chase, bake-off and professional
chef demonstrations (lewisburgchocolatefestival.com). "That festival brings
in thousands of people," says Amy
Mills, owner of the newly opened
