- We recently had the opportunity to visit this wonderful gem in southern Virginia. If you ever have the chance, we highly recommend going to The Floyd Country Store for the Friday Night Jamboree. You will not be disappointed!
(Episode 18 of the Farmstead Field Trip series)

God bless you sir for helping a traditional way of life. I too miss the old way of living, we didn't have all that much but we appreciated what little the Lord gave us.
Wow! thanks you take me back to my very young days like about 14 years old now 83 and not the same as you have but a small village that had country music on Saturday nights,Canada.
in a small village, with dancing and live music. It was as well my first time getting a bit tipsy with wine from the older guys. But still here at 83 now living alone and miss the the country.
Great interview and fascinating history, and I am a city person!
Whish I where there...one day in the near future.
Greetings from Germany!
Hi, I’m from England, I have only just discovered this kind of music. I love that there are so many youngsters involved and they are so talented. I love to watch and listen to people like Margo and Ipi. I’ve seen them playing at the Floyd Country Store on you tube in the uk and it’s great to get some background information on how it all works. Thank you ❤️🏴🇬🇧
Keep in mind that we stole the music from you as he pointed out, you Brits, Scots, Irish, etc. Thank you for that.
I've been only to County Sales back in 2000, long way from Germany, Europe.
We look forward to stopping there Labor Day weekend as we’re doing a motorcycle trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway.
That sounds fabulous. The Blue Ridge Parkway is so awesome!!
Is the music night on Friday's primarily bluegrass or are there folk singers songwriters, playing acoustic guitars but performing without banjos? Any very folk genre played, like Joan Baez, Peter, Paul & Mary, Gordon Lightfoot, Dylan, Mary Chapin Carpenter type of folk?
Also, seems like there are mostly couples there on music nights.
Are there any people by themselves who are over 50? Or is it mostly just couples who attend who are OVER 50 or 55? I wouldn't have anyone to go there with and of course no one to dance with. How many older singles are there completely on their own?
I think its a mix of bluegrass and old time music, but here's a link for the upcoming Jamboree acts. We saw people of all ages out on the dance floor. You'd make friends quickly.

Ok, thank you for the music link. When you see people of all ages on the dance floor, are the older ones (over 50) are usually there with their spouses? Are there that many older people who actually come to the dance totally on their own? Or just mainly younger people who might be there on their own?
Whenever I went to other similar dances in the past, all the people in my age group were ALL there with their spouse and I felt kind of out of place. It was ALSO a mixture of ages, which is nice (not just older aged people), but only saw some younger people on their own and those guy's just asked girls around their ages,20's, 30's to dance, not women who were 20 or 30 years older then themselves.
