Jay County Fiber Fest 2012 Friday, 20 January 2012 13:38 |  Author: Jay County Tourism Bureau |
It's wintertime now and I am in hibernation mode—that would be as close to
hibernation as I can get with Angora goats and sheep to feed and water. The
colder it gets, the more they appreciate warm water. It is an ideal time to sit
and spin and knit while watching the snow outside. Last Updated (Friday, 20 January 2012 13:46) |

As well as being a historic canal village, Metamora Indiana is also known as the home of fudge and sweet shops. At Mr Fudge's Confectionery on Main Street visitors can watch as fudge and brittles are poured out on a marble slab and worked into delicious treats. Donna Monroe grew up learning the tricks of the trade, you can watch a video of her in action on Youtube just like the old time drug store sodas. Mr Fudge's is open Tues-Sun from 10 to 5, and most holidays. Their phone number is 765-647-4956.

It was 100 degrees in the shade on Saturday, and rain kept falling sporadically on Sunday; but the Old Time Music Festival in Metamora went on. Over 30 regional groups and performers shared their talents from two stage areas, workshops were well attended, and everyone had a great time!
