Home Brewers Keep it Local with Skagit Valley Malt
50 Home Brewers competed in this year’s competition. Home brewers picked up their Skagit Valley malt at Northwest Brewers Supply and crafted their submissions in January and February. The judging takes place at the end of February at Cardinal Craft Brewing with 13 judges, including experienced judges, instructors, brewers, brewery owners, and Skagit Valley College Craft Brewing Academy students.
“We are happy to sponsor this event which helps raise awareness of the Skagit Valley and its contributions to the local beer scene across Washington. Our farmers grow a wide variety of crops that barley plays a part in, and it’s part of their sustainability program for their soil. So, every pound a brewer uses in a beer helps promote sustainable farming practices in the Valley,” says Erik Youngren, VP, Skagit Valley Malting.
Cardinal Craft Brewing brews the winning Ale Trail Pale. The winning brew is served during the Skagit Farm to Pint Roadshow at Anacortes Brewery.
OUR SPONSORS MAKE THE ROADSHOW HAPPEN – THANK YOU!
THE GREAT BREWERIES OF SKAGIT VALLEY
$129,00
That’s the amount of money Skagit Farm to Pint and our Skagit Valley Breweries raised from 2018-2022 to help Viva Farms empower aspiring and limited-resource farmers by providing bilingual training in holistic organic farming practices, as well as access to land, infrastructure, equipment, marketing, and capital.
Farming is at the heart of what makes Skagit such a precious place, but that legacy is at risk. In the next 20 years, 70% of all Washington State farmers are expected to retire. Meanwhile, the Puget Sound region has lost 60% of its farmland since 1950. If this trend continues, the last acre of farmland in the region could be bulldozed or paved over by 2053. We are aiming to raise $60,000 through Skagit Farm to Pint ROADSHOW 2022 to support Viva Farms’ work to preserve sustainable farming for future generations. Join us.
LONG LIVE FARMS!
