First, we travel to Jessamine County to see how Chrisman Mill Winery is connecting the past to the present. Denise and Chris Nelson have found a unique way to give back to their community by partnering with non-profits like Old Friends, a volunteer based organization that rescues and cares for retired thoroughbred horses. But how do wine and thoroughbreds go together? Next, join us for a taste of the World’s Largest Apple Pie at the Casey County Apple Festival. And finally we wrap up in Allen County where a dedicated group is making sure that one primitive art form stays alive in the computer age.
