These jam sessions are always organic and full of talented musicians eager to share their love of Bluegrass. But that's not all the festival has to offer. You'll also have the opportunity to take up-close photos of the beautiful varieties grown in Farmers Branch. And of course, no festival would be complete without delicious food options. You can indulge in local favorites like Mex-Mex, corny dogs, roasted corn, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and more. And if you're looking for something to wash it all down, there's a great selection of premium and local craft beers, wines, and frozen wineries to choose from.
