Your journey with Pete through Danville, Kentucky begins here! We'll begin our morning in the beautiful countryside on the farm, at "The Farm" Bed and Breakfast. From there, we're off to a "sweet" start as we roll up our sleeves to go "back in time" and straight into the story behind Burke's Bakery, a 5th generation family-run bakery where time, tradition and that one-of-a-kind scratch-bakery taste stand still.

 

Finally, we meet up at The Hub with a local Danville business leader for a historic tour of Main Street and a glimpse into how Danville is blending the past with the present and future to preserve its small town treasures for future generations to enjoy.

In this episode, you'll travel into the heart, history and Bourbon-making process of an incredible family-run Bourbon distillery with a long legacy combined with a new beginning.

 

You'll also get to experience a very rare gathering of Bardstown's four Master Bourbon Distillers at the Oscar Getz Museum as they share their stories and, of course, the fruits of their labor.

Finally, we finish our day with a brief look back at the Bardstown series set to another incredible song by singer-songwriter Michael Brunnock. You might want to stick around after the credits for something we think will put an even bigger smile on your face.
