🎉 Jacob

Each winner receives a FREE jar of their choice!

Clay, Charity, and John have already claimed their prizes. 🥒❤️

Jacob, if you see this post, check your texts. Your free pickle jar is waiting on you, and we promise we haven't eaten it yet! 😆🥒

Thank you again to everyone who stopped by. We had a fantastic day, met some wonderful new folks, visited with old friends, and nearly melted in that East Tennessee heat.

We're already gearing up for Red, White & Boom in Downtown Tellico and can't wait to see y'all again in a couple of weeks!

From our holler to yours,

🥒🔥 WELL... Y'ALL DID IT! 🔥🥒

First off, THANK YOU to everyone who braved the heat and stopped by our booth at the Tellico Trout Festival. It was hotter than a cast iron skillet sitting on a blacktop driveway in July, but seeing old friends, making new ones, and talking pickles all day made every drop of sweat worth it.

Now for the big news...

Granny's Holler Bread & Butter Pickles didn't just win the taste test—they left Classic Bread & Butter standing at the altar. The votes came in fast, the jars disappeared even faster, and Granny's Holler sold out in less than an hour. After the last few jars of Classic are gone, they'll be riding off into the Appalachian sunset while Granny settles into her new throne.

Turns out Granny still knows a thing or two about pickles. 👑🥒

And if that wasn't enough excitement, y'all cleaned us out of Spicy Maple Bourbon Pickles too. Apparently it was a pickle kind of day in Tellico Plains!

We're already making lists, washing jars, sharpening canning knives, and clearing counter space because Red, White & Boom is only TWO WEEKS AWAY. Between now and then, we'll be canning ourselves crazy trying to keep up with y'all.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting our little Appalachian business. Every jar, every conversation, every laugh, and every new friend means more than you know.

We'll see y'all in Downtown Tellico for Red, White & Boom—two weeks from today!

From our holler to yours,

❤️ Hinklebilly Homestead

🚨 WANTED: New Address for One Overconfident Rooster 🚨

This fella has been notified that Hinklebilly Farm is currently overstocked on management positions 🐓😂

Hatched last summer, not aggressive, good with hens, healthy, and spends most of his time patrolling the yard like a tiny feathered security guard.

Unfortunately, we now have more roosters than common sense around here, and the morning crowing competitions are getting a little out of hand 😆

✔️ Not mean
✔️ Handsome and flashy
✔️ Free-range raised
✔️ Thinks he’s extremely important

Somebody come give this boy a flock of his own before he starts charging the hens rent.

Message if interested!

🥚 EGGS AVAILABLE at Hinklebilly Farm 🥚

Naturally colored • Free range • Bloom intact

💥 3 dozen for $10
or $4 each 💥

And apparently one of the boys thinks he owns the place… 🐓😂

This handsome fella is looking for a new flock. Hatched last summer, not aggressive, good with hens, and spends most of his day strutting around like he pays the feed bill.

We’ve just got way too many roosters right now and somebody’s gotta move out before they start forming a union 😆

Message if interested in eggs OR this fancy little gentleman rooster.
