Friday nights are made for great music, delicious food, and ice-cold cider! 🍎🍺

Join us Friday, June 26th as we kick off another fantastic weekend at Bushel & Barrel Ciderhouse!

🕓 Open: 4:00 PM – 9:00 PM

🍖 Da Q Shack BBQ will be serving up their mouthwatering barbecue, so come hungry!

🎶 Live Music by Morgan Smith & Co. 🎶

If you've ever seen Morgan play, you know you're in for a treat. Morgan and his talented bluegrass friends always bring the house down with incredible musicianship, toe-tapping tunes, and an energy that makes for an unforgettable evening.

🌤️ We're keeping an eye on the weather! If Mother Nature cooperates, we'll be enjoying the music outside on the lawn—so grab your folding chairs or blankets and settle in for a beautiful summer concert. If it's rainy or chilly, we'll simply move the music inside, and the fun will keep rolling!

We'll see you Friday for another unforgettable night at the ciderhouse! 🍎🎶🍖

🚨 MISSING: OUR BELOVED BLUE BOUNCER 🚨

Somewhere out there, a little blue bouncer is wondering how it ended up away from Bushel & Barrel Ciderhouse.

This goofy little toy has brought countless smiles to children visiting the farm. One of my favorite things is watching kids bounce around, laugh with their friends, and make memories while their families enjoy time together. It may seem like just a toy, but it's become part of the Bushel & Barrel experience for a lot of families.

On Sunday, I noticed a child carrying the bouncer back and forth to a vehicle several times. At the time, I assumed a parent would explain that it belonged to the ciderhouse and was meant to stay here for everyone to enjoy. Because of that, I honestly don't know if that family accidentally left with it, or if someone else picked it up later.

Either way, I'm hoping this was simply a misunderstanding.

If our blue bouncer accidentally made its way home with you, please bring it back. No questions asked. No hard feelings.

These toys are here for all the children who visit Bushel & Barrel—not just one family, but every family who comes to spend time on the farm.

Our blue bouncer is missed, and there are a lot of little feet waiting for it to come bounce again.

💙 Please help us bring our bouncy friend home.

🎶❤️ Another Magical Friday on the Farm ❤️🎶

Last night was one of those evenings that reminds me exactly why we built Bushel & Barrel Ciderhouse.

A huge thank you to the incredibly talented Melody Meerkats— Krista, Rich, and Larry—for filling our little corner of the world with wonderful bluegrass melodies, laughter, and great energy. As your music drifted across the farm, kids danced on the lawn, families gathered with friends, delicious wood-fired pizza was served up fresh by Oath Pizza, and the sounds of mooing cows, braying donkeys, and happy farm life created the perfect backdrop. It was one of those evenings that just felt right.

Thank you to Oath Pizza for keeping everyone well fed, and a special thank you to my farmer friend Roni for jumping behind the Silo bar and helping make the night run smoothly. It truly takes a village, and I'm so grateful for the amazing people who help make these events happen.

Most importantly, thank YOU to everyone who came out, supported local music, enjoyed a cider, and made memories with us. Seeing families, friends, kids, pets, and neighbors all gathered together is exactly what Bushel & Barrel is all about.

And we're not done yet!

📅 Mark your calendars for Friday, June 26th!
We'll welcome the talented Morgan Smith & Co. to the Fire Truck Stage for another evening of toe-tapping, boot-stomping fun. Bring your camping chairs, bring your friends, and get ready for another unforgettable Friday on the farm.

Here's to great music, great food, great cider, and even better company. 🍎🍻🎵
