Area History
Dixie County's history includes a battle at Old Town on US 19, where Chief Billy Bowlegs met up with Andrew Jackson during the Indian uprisings. Prior to the Civil War, Old Town was the site of a factory where Spanish moss was turned into clean, economical stuffing for mattresses and furniture.

Dakotah Vineyards ' Free Wine Tasting
Dakotah Vineyards is a family business operated by Rob Rittgers and his father Max Rittgers.
Max established the vineyard in 1985 with a planting of 200 muscadine grape vines. The first grapes produced were sold onsite from a board across two five-gallon buckets.
Today Dakotah Winery is a 12-acre site with over 6,000 grape vines. A large, comfortable wine-tasting room welcomes visitors. A temperature-controlled wine cellar is the most recent addition.
