Henderson County, located in the western part of North Carolina, was established on December 15, 1838, from parts of Buncombe County. The county was named after Leonard Henderson, the Chief Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court at the time. Covering an area of approximately 375 square miles, the region is characterized by a rich history and cultural heritage.
In the early 19th century, the area was primarily inhabited by Native American tribes, most notably the Cherokee. European settlement began to flourish in the mid-to-late 1700s, with settlers primarily engaged in farming, livestock raising, and small-scale industry. The establishment of the Buncombe Turnpike in 1827, a major transportation route connecting North Carolina to Tennessee, boosted economic development in the region.
Henderson County has a diverse agricultural heritage, with apples being its most famous produce. In fact, the county is known as the "Crest of the Blue Ridge Apple Country" and has one of North Carolina's largest apple productions. The area also has a long tradition of fruit and vegetable growing, cattle rearing, and dairy farming.
A fun fact about Henderson County is that it hosts the annual North Carolina Apple Festival every Labor Day weekend in the city of Hendersonville, drawing thousands of visitors to the region to celebrate the county's rich apple-growing tradition. The festival features food, arts and crafts, live entertainment, and various family activities, highlighting the cultural and historic significance of apples to the area.
