Reed Gold Mine

Explore southern Cabarrus County and you’ll find a wealth of interesting adventures, including Reed Gold Mine . As the location of the first documented discovery of gold in America, this state historic site offers tours of restored underground tunnels, mining exhibits on display and the chance to pan for gold. Around the corner, panoramic Rocky River Vineyards offers sweeping views of the Piedmont region’s rolling hills and tastings that include their signature muscadine wines. Sample more of Midland’s fruits during strawberry season at Deer Run Farm and pick a pumpkin from the patch at Riverbend Farm in October. From playing at Rob Wallace Park to paddling the Rocky River and hiking segments of the Carolina Thread Trail , the town has enough outdoor offerings to occupy an entire weekend. Once all the exercise works up an appetite, stop in nearby farm stores and markets to refuel. Midland Provisions prioritizes locally made products with their wide selection from North Carolina-based purveyors. Along with their store, Midland Farms hosts seasonal events including a fall festival and holiday vendor fair. And don’t miss Bloom Again boutique and tearoom for more local goods alongside darling apparel and gifts. For a breath of fresh air, a taste of Cabarrus and memories that are worth their weight in gold, the town of Midland is a true treasure. Midland
