About this adventure

A January day of old-Florida traditions at the Pioneer Florida Museum & Village in Dade City, centered on the museum's working cane mill, where volunteers press fresh sugar cane and boil it down into syrup. Kids can watch the whole process, taste cane syrup and sample fresh cane and cane juice while supplies last, then see blacksmith and pioneer craft demonstrations, the model train room in the Trilby Train Depot, and live animals from Pharaoh's Wildlife Kingdom on the Citrus Stage all day. Bluegrass-style bands play from 10 AM, and a staged "Raid at the Moonshine Still" happens at 2 PM. The moonshine tastings and cocktails are strictly 21+ with ID; everything else is for all ages. Vendors and food trucks are on site, museum concessions are cash only, and no pets or coolers are allowed.
