When Pat and Bob Burnley invited neighbors and friends to celebrate fresh food and family fun in their backyard in 1954, they had no idea this would be the origins of Kitchen Kettle Village. Their commitment to spread happiness grew from their homestead, and now three generations later, the village includes 40+ shops and eateries alongside a working canning kitchen and an Inn to welcome guests from near and far. Whether you come for homemade food, shopping, lodging, or festivals, you will find traditions passed down from the Burnleys and lots of friendly faces at Kitchen Kettle Village.
