Something's always cookin' in Genuine Smithfield! With the town's natural beauty and temperate climate as a backdrop, it's not surprising the locals boast about so many special events offered throughout the year. Parking is easy and you'll find the living is easy in Genuine Smithfield. So visit us for the Farmers Market, Vintage Market, The Smithfield Wine and Brew Fest, Hog Jog, the Friday Night Concert Series or our old-fashioned Christmas Parade - to name just a few - and you'll discover one more way to savor our small-town charm.
