Strawberries
If you signed up for a Lewis Creek CSA at the Mead Hall, then get ready, because this Friday marks the first of twenty incredible weeks of fresh Vermont produce delivered right to your favorite neighborhood Mead Hall!

As if that's not exciting enough, we just got word that the first delivery is going to be full of strawberries and other early summer goodies!

Oh yeah, and don't forget, all CSA members also get a half-priced squealer every week!

If you didn't sign up for a CSA this year, you can still come by on Fridays to drink away your feelings of jealousy and regret. We promise not to tease you too much.

38th National Homebrewers Conference
Have you always wanted to have Ricky the Meadmaker talk at you live and in person? Are you curious about including beer-brewing practices in your mead production? Do you have questions which are just too embarrassing for Ask the Meadmaker?

Well, this Friday, June 10th, Ricky the Meadmaker will be live at the 38th Annual National Homebrewers Conference in Baltimore, Maryland, to tell you all about Modern Meadmaking!

The lecture is at 11:30 in room 324-326 and, get this, there will be free mead.

Yep. You read that right. Free Mead. Why? Because no one should have to listen to Ricky completely sober.

So, put on your drinking pants and get your questions ready, because we're heading to Baltimore.

    Groennfell Meadery is Vermont’s premier craft meadery. Inspired by Old Norse legends, brewed with extraordinary ingredients, Groennfell’s meads are unlike anything you’ve had before. Crisp, clean, and astoundingly drinkable, the only way to explain any one of Groennfell’s meads is to try one yourself.
