Add this to your list of local beers:
MadTree. They’ve been up and running since the end of January, filling
kegs and growlers, and are about to start canning for broader
distribution.

Chefs Steven Geddes of Local 127 and Justin Dean of Relish Group to participate
Napoleon Ridge Farm is hosting “Dinner
on the Farm” on Friday, June 1 at their farm in Gallatin County.
The fundraising dinner is part of this year’s Farmers’ Fair: Know
Your Farmer, Know Your Food series. The event will raise funds for
Community Farm Alliance, a 26-year-old nonprofit Kentucky grassroots
organization that advocates for farms, farmers and food systems. The
dinner will take place under the eaves of their large barn so rain
will not be a problem. As this is a working farm, the animals will be
there to say hello, and portable restrooms will be available for use
as well.
Chef Steven Geddes from Local 127 and
Chef Justin Dean from Relish Group will be harvesting, butchering and
cooking the dinner — and having enjoyed Napoleon Ridge’s delicious
pork and fresh herbs that I purchased at the Covington Farmer’s
Market for the last two Saturdays, I know they will be working with
wonderful ingredients. Wine to compliment the food will be from
StoneBrook Winery in Camp Springs, and delicious musical
entertainment will be provided by Kyle Knapp and Chris Cusentino of
The Turkeys. There will also be Kentucky Ale and non-alcoholic drinks
available.
Tickets are $100 per seat, limited to
the first 50 paid seats, which includes all food, beverages
including wine and beer, entertainment and a shuttle ride to the
farm and back from Fountain Square — about a 70 mile round trip, so
that makes it a real bargain! To make a reservation, contact Napoleon
Ridge's owner, Tricia Houston, tricia@napoleonridgefarm.com or call
859-643-FARM for more information.
