Tuesday evening is bean supper night at the Brown County Bluegrass Festival, held at the Brown County Fairgrounds in Georgetown, Ohio. Promoter Edgar Loudermilk’s mother Becky serves up lots of beans. Everyone brings a dish to pass and we all eat too much! The Ol’ Hippie, Jerry Eicher, brews up his own pimento cheese recipe.
New Mountain Heritage provided music for the supper crowd. They will open the stage show on Thursday.
Ron Benton presented Edgar with a hand carved walking stick.
Wednesday is Edgar’s fish fry night. He fishes all year long to provide the fish. Once again, we will gather and eat too much.
Bands from Ohio, Michigan Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Louisiana will provide the weekend’s entertainment.
