1930s styled Harvest Hoedown

As the heat of the summer growing season fades to the cool crispness of fall evenings, our attention turns to the bounty of the harvest in this still-rural community. The Monroe County Heritage Museum will be hosting a 1930s styled Harvest Hoedown. Travel back in time as the lawn surrounding the Old Courthouse becomes the setting for a simple Alabama county festival. Come in period dress to dance under the stars, or just stomp along, as our favorite regional band, Rollin’ in the Hay, stirs up the night air with the sounds of fiddle and banjo. Enjoy down-home food, such as, BBQ & Coleslaw, Smoked Ham & Biscuits, Macaroni & Cheese, Boiled Peanuts and Peach Cobbler, all washed down with Sweet Iced Tea. (Drink mixers will be provided). Festivities will begin at 6:00 pm and end at 10:00 pm on Thursday.
Tickets are priced at $15.00 in advance $20 at and may be purchased in advance by calling the Museum at 251-575-7433.
