About Our Founder

Barney Barnwell

Barney was our founder and was a musician, a storyteller, a woodcarver, a graphic artist and tshirt designer….you name it and he could probably do it. He created his own dvds-How To Make Moonshine Part I and Part II and recorded 5 cds over his music career. He was so creative and talented in multiple ways and we try every day to follow in his footsteps and uphold his legacy…

We’ll See You At The Farm!

Hey y’all, grab your tent and cooler and head on down to the Plum Hollow Farm, a 50-acre music park near Spartanburg, SC. It’s more than just an event, it’s where friends become family. It’s a place where you can come to get away from it all for the weekend – music, camping, late night picking’ around the campfires, storytelling and so much more. We’ve got showers, indoor bathrooms, primitive tent camping, RV spots, and plenty of parking to welcome everyone with open arms.
