Barn Dance with Zydeco Ya Ya + Cider Release

Mon cher, let’s get to it 💃

Zydeco Ya Ya is back in the Big Barn for a night of zydeco, blues, swamp pop, second line, and Cajun swing. These crowd favorites bring a groove that’s hard to resist—whether you’re out on the dance floor or swaying in your seat with a cold drink in hand.

We’ll have the bar open with local beers, non-alcoholic options, and a snack cart. Grush’s Cajun Dino Kitchen will be serving up Cajun classics alongside creative new fusion dishes featuring local produce and Hickory Nut Gap meats.

🍏 It’s also a release party with Botanist & Barrel! We’ll be sampling “Sugar Hollow Daybreak,” a fresh collaboration between their master craft cider makers and Hickory Nut Gap’s pressed NC apple cider—a fall favorite reimagined as a bright, easy spring sip.

Pro tip: We’ve got picnic tables, benches, and patio seating available, but it can fill up fast—bring a folding chair or picnic blanket just in case.
