The former W**e-A-Ree, now renamed Corks, Caps and Casks in downtown Columbus is Sat. November 7…join us there for all your holiday favs!

🎉Two fan-favorite vendors are back at Corks, Caps, & Casks this year. We couldn't be more excited to welcome them back!

🥃 Hard Truth Distilling Co. (Nashville, Indiana) — Indiana's largest destination craft distillery, known for its award-winning bourbons, rye whiskeys, and flavored spirits. If you've never been to their 325-acre property in Brown County, come taste what all the buzz is about!

🍷 Winzerwald W**ery (Bristow, Indiana) — Tucked deep in the Hoosier National Forest, this family-owned w**ery crafts German- and Swiss-inspired w**es like Riesling and Gewürztraminer, honoring a w**emaking tradition that traces back generations.

Both of these vendors were sorely missed last year, and we know a lot of you have been asking when they'd be back. Well — here's your answer! Come say hello and raise a glass with us.

Jim and Lynna Woolsey Bio:
Jim has been playing bluegrass music since he was 15 years old. He started playing guitar and singing lead vocals in a local band, The Patoka Valley Boys and has continued performing in various bands since then. He has been writing songs even longer. He wrote his first song at the tender age of three and has written hundreds of songs since. As a single act or in a band, Jim has shared the stage with acts like The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

He and his wife Lynna started their career together shortly after they married. Lynna started performing at 4 years old in church and then bluegrass when she met Jim. They write, sing and perform all original material. Jim and Lynna have received various Bluegrass awards for Old Time Vocals, Guitar, Mandolin, and have garnered several band titles. These include a first place trophy for the Kentucky Fried Chicken Talent Hunt and a first place title in the Indiana Picking and Fiddling Contest with their band, Fields of Home, two years in a row. Jim and Lynna have performed together at the Bluebird Café and the World-famous Station Inn venues in Nashville, Tennessee, Goldie’s Opera House in Owensboro, Kentucky.

They made the leap to professional with the release of their first Cd, The Road That Brings You Home, and have since released, Heart and Soul, Blood and Bone and Long Ago.
