Leaf it to us. We planted the seed before, and wormed our way into the Apple Barrel Bar at 609 Frenchmen. We’ll be planted there 4 times over the next two weeks: Thursday the 23rd, Friday the 24th, Thursday the 30th, and Friday the 31st. Harvest the good times with us 6:00-9:30pm on each of those days.
