On September 27, 2024 Hurricane Helene ravaged our beautiful community and in the ensuring months our community has been on its own comeback journey. From securing homes for those displaced by the storm, to helping businesses rebuild, our community has been resilient and strong and we are moving forward with new hope.
A part of the comeback is the return of our treasured events like the NC Mineral and Gem Festival. The Mitchell County Chamber Board of Directors knew how important it was to make the 2025 event happen and we’re happy to say that thanks to Mayland Community College, the Three Peaks Enrichment Center and other community partners, the NC Mineral and Gem Festival will continue July 31-August 3, 2025!
We look forward to welcoming you to our community where you will find our businesses and vendors ready to greet you! See you soon!
