Community Description
Short Description: Barberville was established in 1882 by James D. Barber who hoped to capitalize on the fact that the area was on the proposed route of the Jacksonville, Tampa, Key West Railroad. Today it lies at the crossroads of busy Highway 17 and Route 40 which connects the sea to Florida's interior, the Ocala National Forest and the City of Ocala itself. Not far from here was the tiny settlement of Volusia (named for a Belgium native whose name was loosely spelled and loosely pronounced "Volousee") and for which the county is named. Barberville is home to Pioneer Village a demonstrative project to link today's Floridians to their pioneer ancestors and their way of life. For a real step back in time slowly drive from Deleon State Park entrance on county road #3 directly to Pioneer Village's doorstep.
In November, the Fall Country Jamboree attracts hundreds of crafters and thousands of visitors to the Pioneer Settlement for the Creative Arts at Barbervllle.
