Tennessee is now home to a new attraction described by Bush’s Beans as ‘the world’s most beautiful bean museum’, which is part of a revitalised visitor centre.
Located in Dandridge, the museum celebrates Bush’s history and “all things beans”, says a news release. It offers an educational experience through digital exhibits, with guests learning all about beans.
Situated in the original Bush’s general store, the new “bean-tastic museum” features a reimagined bean scale that guests can stand on and find out their weight in beans.
Visitors can interact with a digital shelf of Bush’s products, clicking on them to discover the ingredients and more. The museum’s refreshed theatre experience houses a virtual plant tour showcasing the manufacturing process.
Attraction celebrates “all things beans”
“I am proud to see my family’s legacy of spreading bean goodness portrayed in a fun and interactive way at the new Bush’s visitor center museum,” said Drew Everett, Bush’s chairman and fourth-generation member of the Bush family.
“As a family-owned business, we are thrilled to be able to share our history and welcome our visitors to Chestnut Hill to experience bean goodness first-hand.”
Admission to the museum is included in the price of entry to the visitor center, which is home to a general store and the Bush’s Family CafĂ©. Here, guests can enjoy southern comfort food, such as the famous pinto bean pie.
Guy Fieri, the chef, restaurateur and TV host, recently launched a food-focused family entertainment centre (FEC) in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee called Guy Fieri’s Downtown Flavortown.
