Hanceville Grilled Cheese Festival

*** EVENT RESCHEDULED ***

This year's festival will be rescheduled due to weather. Stay tuned for the date once the weather pattern stabilizes. As of now, next week looks like the same setup, so it will likely be after that, maybe even later in June or early July. Thanks for everyone's support, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks to all of our vendors and sponsors who made yesterday's event one of the best ever. After the initial storms, the weather turned out great, although a bit hot and muggy, but it is after all, Alabama :)

A special shout out to Breaking Bread w Aj & the Chubbfather for coming down and helping us out with the cooking competition, and some great food truck interviews!

Thanks again, and have a great Memorial Day. Remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice. It's their day, all for us.
