The Brown County Hour comes to you from the legendary Hills o' Brown where the plum purple haze, the one nature herself drapes in the hills and hollers, inspires local characters, artists, and nature lovers. It’s as though the hills themselves conspired to create a beauty and a culture in the heart of Indiana.
