I work for the Tiny Greens Farm, and had some fliers at out booth today, so I bet that's where you got yours. <br /><br />I know that the bulk of the wine ingredients (strawberries, dandelions, etc.) we're using ARE local. <br /><br />I don't think the beer ingredients Aaron gets are currently local although I have heard him talk of growing hops...(I'm sure he will have more on that at the workshop.) and I'm sure he'd be all ears to suggestions for sourcing the ingredients locally. I know there is a farm near Kankakee (Three Sisters,is their name I think) that grows oats and other grains so perhaps they might have some of the raw goods for a truly HOMEY brew. It's likely that other participants at the workshop will know where to get some ingredients. We'd love to have your input, tips and tales from your brewing experience. <br />This project is all about sharing resources in this community. Hope you can make it.

(I have no idea where. Somehow it made it's way into my grocery bag.) Sounds like a cool project. I've been brewing a few years and I highly recommend it. I am curious what you're brewing and whether you managed to get the ingredients locally. In which case please tell me where!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07952141751557039884noreply@blogger.com
