Local Motives Tuesday - Vermont Fresh Network

Location:

Foam Brewers - Burlington Waterfront

Other
DJ

Join us every Tuesday as we'll host a different local organization to use the brewery space, drink a special release of beer and wine, and enjoy the musical stylings of DJs Local Dork. This series was created with the intention of engaging with the community and giving the opportunity to local organizations to connect with people in Bulrington face to face. Each week a keg of a Natural Hack wine is released along with a brewer’s pick of beer at a featured price.

The Tunes:

Local Dork has been an integral part of Foam’s artistic fabric since opening in 2016. The vinyl spinning DJ duo of Bob Wagner and Matt Hagen has been a resident fixture every Tuesday curating a wildly eclectic and always grooving audio aesthetic. An all-local ingredient beer is brewed annually using Local Dork’s namesake as an homage to local collaborations (growers, farmers, local agriculture, etc). Foam Brewers and Local Dork have evolved immensely together while continuing to share core values that celebrate their local community.

This week's organization:

Vermont Fresh Network

The Vermont Fresh Network is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization founded in 1996 with the mission of advancing relationships among farmers, chefs, and consumers to grow markets and eat more locally grown food.

May is VT Fresh Network Gold Barn month honoring "Gold Barn" members, including Deep City!

"VFN Gold Barn Members must spend at least 35% of their annual food purchasing budget on local food and products, and have at least 10 local producer partners. VFN currently has 57 Gold Barn Members, and collectively, their local purchasing reached close to $9 million on local food and beverage products in the past year."
