Ohio Valley Kettle Corn

04/26/2026

Ashville Viking Festival is full of wonder! In between churning out our famous Honey Kettle Corn and making the best ever Lemon Shake Ups, we got to see a guy swallowing flames and swords, while we were eating some amazing steam churned ice-cream. We spoke to a couple of Knights who were preparing for battle, and we were entertained by the opportunity for people watching some amazingly creative individuals. Ongoing Sunday from 10:00 am until 5:00 pm. Bring some Food Pantry items to donate and enjoy a sunny afternoon browsing the Viking era crafts, mixed in with some hippie style clothing and crafts while listening to jokes and music, and watching guys jousting. Visit their FB page for more information.

What an amazing day at the Festival today. So far we are on track to once again beat our donations to the Food Pantry. They are thrilled, let's do it again tomorrow shall we?

The weather was fine, just enough clouds for shade, and a lovely breeze.
The New D.O.R.A. went well, and all I spoke to had good things to say.

Sunday 10 to 5. Vendors have outdone themselves, the entertainment is great.
Reenactor area is a joy.

One more day this year to come and enjoy. We hope you don't miss it!!!

We just picked up some Ohio grown popcorn at Clutter Farm for our fall events! We are proud to feature their tender, flavorful kernels with smaller hulls and are happy to have found a great home grown product for our fans!! It was totally fun to see their robotic stacker working, too!

We just created a double sided Sugar Groove Lemon Shake-up tent that allows us to serve the biggest thirsty crowds with fast moving double lines. Our ice-cold Lemon Shake-ups are crafted with that fresh, home-made goodness everybody craves on a hot day, plus we have added a variety of real fruit purees for customizing your favorite drink. We love it when we are groovin' to the scent of fresh squeezed lemons and would love to be at your next event.
