Buffalo and bluegrass?

That’s right — for the second year in a row at the Hidden Hill Nursery & Sculpture Garden, which describes itself as a unique mini-arboretum, sculpture gallery and unusual plant nursery in Utica, in Southern Indiana about 8 miles from Louisville.

It’s the business’s second annual Buffalo Bar-B-Que and Bluegrass Music Festival on Sept. 8 and 9. Concerts featuring regional bands are scheduled Saturday and open jamming with multiple stages will also run all weekend.
