Chantilly Farm’s annual BBQ & Bluegrass Festival kicked off on the Franklin Road site outside of Floyd Friday for a two-day run in the sun and temperatures approaching the 90s to kick off the Memorial Day weekend.

A threat of thunderstorms forecast for Saturday afternoon could cause some problems but a clear evening is predicted for The Wildmans, Deer Creek  Boys, Junior Sisk Bands, Breaking Grass and The Steeldrivers.
