Permanently closed.

"The Hermitage Enslaved" is a horse drawn wagon tour that takes visitors beyond the Hermitage Mansion and into the plantation fields where the majority of the enslaved men, women, and children worked, toiled, and lived under the ownership of General Andrew Jackson. On the tour your wagon driver will discuss the story of how cotton, the cash crop and the enslaved people who tended it were vital to

the economy and lifestyle of the Jackson's while also examining how that enslaved community carved out lives of their own despite the "chains" that bound them. The scenic ride lets you experience the 1120 acres from the comfort of a horse-drawn wagon.

Welcome to the world little surprise one!! Last night this little guy made his debut! Special shout out to Jaderian Stanfield for opening up her barn as a nursery for mama and baby!
We were not expecting him, until a suspicious belly started appearing in late January.
