My grandma had a water barrel with the chain. The water would follow the chain down to the barrel due to the tension built up in the water and it would “stick” to the chain, an amazing phenomenon.

[@georgiavanhouten9360]

My Heart is beating faster,Thank you for all the American's who save our History,God bless this Place and all who came here and those to come

[@kennethstuckey7823]

John, you never stop amazing me! I really enjoyed this video! Thank you so much for making it! Hart Square Village, NC; I've never heard of this place. But, from what I just saw, this place, which is full of true history and historic artifacts, is fascinating, breathtaking, and so intriguing! The living history at this place is so special and very important. It is definitely on my bucket list to visit and explore! Please thank Brett Weatherman for an awesome tour! It was most informative and astounding. GOD bless!

[@MegaBait1616]

I'm 15 min.'s from this place n never gone to it cause it's open only 1 day a yr.... Even paying for a membership can't go inside of any of these builds..

[@saraharellano9399]

New favorite video 🙌🏼What a beautiful place, I could literally live there. Bless them for taking such wonderful care of history.

[@theappalachianchannel]

[@debluetailfly]

I just found out about Hart Village a couple of year ago. Looks like a really cool place.

[@davidrasch3082]

Fascinating video. Kids in schools should see this.

[@bobduckworth6430]

John, many of those jugs came from the local area. Catawba County, with its red clay soil, was/is conducive in being great mud material for the production of pottery.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Thanks for the info

[@131dyana]

Amazing that this is still there. Acres of history there. thank you for taking us along with you so interesting.

[@maryhall7464]

Really interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@1954shadow]

Love that cabin with the forerunner of a, privacy fence.

[@dbkyhere9229]

Thanks so much for a great education tour!

[@Treasuremonk]

I did some wildlife removal for Doc Hart, I asked him about the old House at Blackburn school, he said “it’s here! It’s the jail” walked in and was taken back 35 years! Doc was a great man

[@roberthambly9926]

Impresive

[@FernandoOcumare]

Magnificent place. What a trip to the past. Thank you so much !

[@cindyhamblin5673]

O this is wonderful!!! Thank you both for this tour, now this is great to go back in time and see how our ancestors lived! And thank God for the Hart family, for persevering this history!

[@theappalachianchannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@staceygandy2009]

The chain hanging down to the barrel slowed the rain water and helped from splashing. Some people still use them but more for looks because they are all different ornate ones made today. And put a nice pot with rocks and plants under the rain chain.

[@paulwolfrey821]

This is a have to come see adventure .I can't wait to come see all the Fantastic Sites.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Reminds me of John Rice Irwin work, but even more impressive! Especially, since he did so much of the work himself! Beautiful!

[@smsalex64]

Have attended Hart Square annual event once. Awesome

[@dpmart3275]

[@leonidplyatt]

Wow! I didn't expect to see so many interesting things. Awesome museum. It was very interesting to see how they used to build, the layout of the premises. Thank you for the pleasure of seeing this!❤

[@mapleviewfarm1]

We went to the festival (10/28/23) with two of the older grandchildren and thoroughly enjoyed it. Small music gatherings and demonstrations all over. Will have to go another year again because there was just too much to see in one visit! We went after seeing John's video...didn't disappoint! Thank you John!

[@capecod50s]

Wow ... historical treasure.

Thanks for the comment and Happy Memorial Day ! John

[@nuday4637]

Wow so awesome, I guess we all wish we could go back in time now and then👏🏻

[@genewileyopa]

Wow, everything they needed back in the day. You sometimes wonder how the folks did things at a certain time in life. Then when you get the chance to actually see how. Just amazing. Thank you for sharing this video. Enjoyed it. I'm from Iowa. I have family that live there yet in NC.

[@rondadepenbusch8152]

[@lizlocher3612]

Great video! Thanks

[@larrysmith6499]

I have always wanted to visit here in October

[@DanielLehan]

The steel hoop was made in early days by a "cooper". Blacksmith's also made them. The Jacob Minnick family made wagons from c. 1807, (and possibly from 1799), until the 1880's near and in the town of LaFayette, Virginia. They started on the Pedlar Run farm,and by 1842,moved the business into LaFayette itself. After heating the band OR hoop,and fitting it onto the wooden wheel,they would then douse the wheel with water, causing it to shrink. The Minnick family might have made wagons well into the 1930's, but I didn't follow them out that far.

[@mikecurtis2585]

Great toor always fun 👍

[@theappalachianchannel]

It sure is

[@daveroth723]

What a great documentary thank you

[@Slimchip]

Excellent video , sure learned a lot

[@Brandonishome2024]

i would love to live there now no lie im so interested in history of our roots

[@bobball3719]

I wanto talk with Bob. He sure likes not letting the golf kart "sit" too long. Neat place.

[@mkent92104]

I work for Engineered Control Solutions and worked on the event center here. I got to walk around a little bit but never realized exactly what this place really was. I'd love to go back someday and really check it out.

[@juliesmith4654]

So interesting 🤔 I'd like to go to the festival 😁

[@Treasuremonk]

I used to play as a kid in the “jail house “ when it was still in its original spot off Blackburn school road.

[@DASands1]

This is amazing ❤

[@1954shadow]

I’m investing in poplar bark, lol.

[@lornadunne526]

Those were very steep stairs leading to the upstairs of the jail. We live close to New Salem and would love for you to give a tour of our village.

[@teresafagaltinan9164]

Beautiful place, would be even better to plant some flowers

[@1954shadow]

Those boring tools, never new about them, ingenious!

[@shericontrary2535]

and here we are today sitting at home alone with our chromebooks

[@hanslgurtner3082]

I want to live in these houses.

[@theappalachianchannel]

Thanks for the comment and Happy Memorial Day ! John

[@hanslgurtner3082]

@@theappalachianchannel Thank you.

[@mikef.4955]

Love the channel, keep making videos please

[@karenwright8556]

Wow great history! Everyone needs to see this place. All about how industrious people can make ,grow,and cook everything you need! I could live there. Love North Carolina,I'm from KY.

[@Treasuremonk]

That Jail house wasn’t a real jailhouse. About 1982 me and buddy went back into the woods to this house, was surrounded by bamboo , we went in and went up stairs and it was dark, we heard something banging around, by time my eyes focused there was a buzzard about 2’ from my face lol!

[@mikemontgomery7337]

Whoa whoa whoa !!! Where is the smart down to earth beautiful girl ??😂

[@bobritchie6720]

The way that things should be.

[@hikerx9366]

I would love to live in a place like this...completely the old way no modern conveniences. I am beyond impressed with all the detail and it comes complete with everything you need to survive when the Deep State takes complete control of humanity.

[@daviddobson1113]

I don't know what time of year that they are open but they have a lot to do Sadly it is in major disrepair.

[@badapple65]

Jail looked kinda cozy in those days 😝

[@brentphillips2548]

Sorry he hasnt been in a cotton mill he is in the card room. A big process

[@karenrice9934]

Where is this located

[@Lisa-cj6vx]

NC

[@janking7163]

THE ARMISH PEOPLE AR GOOD

[@nekkidfiddler5861]

Make yer own shingles

[@jeannieaycock]

There is one in Louisiana you would to she

[@danielrubio5886]

Now why would anyone be moving around these old buildings ? They should be left at it's original site . This is the most ridiculous choice to do to any old structure.

[@theappalachianchannel]

I’m not for sure where you’re from but I guess you don’t realize that the structures were dilapidated overgrown with weeds and not gonna last any longer unless they had been save at this location. They were not in this condition when they were found they were mostly found with no roofs or no floors and about to fall over Dr. Hart spent thousands and thousands of dollars on each one of them to restore them to save them and preserve them for future generations to see how Appalachia was like in the 1800’s

[@Wickedwokemama]

You know they were definitely using bratty kids to power that “dog&cat treadmill” & if not shame on them! 😂🤣😂

[@matildagreene1744]

Squatters 😂
