Visit this pastoral area of fast running creeks and covered bridges. Brown County's most famed town is Nashville, its sidewalks lined with more than 120 restaurants, art galleries, breweries, wineries, studios and shops.

Dine at the Nashville House, a charming connection to the past. Opened as a hostelry in 1959 before the Civil War, it’s long been part of the village’s historic downtown. Known for its house made apple butter, fried biscuits, and fried chicken, the menu also offers lighter meals as well.

Try some Possum Trot Pale Ale at Big Woods Brewing Company.

Then hit the road as there's plenty to do.

Pat's Gnawbone Sorghum Mill, praised by Michael and Jane Stern of Road Food fame, in the uniquely named Gnaw Bone on State Road 46 East is a must stop. Owner Pat Watkins is known for her homemade jellies, jams and baked goods and in the fall, you can also stock up on goodies made from persimmons that famed Indiana fruit. Just a mile or so down the road, sample some vino or sip in the sun on their large deck at Brown County Winery.
