We will offer pairing suggestions, share tips and tricks, as well as guidance on how to take the most Instagram-worthy photos of your platters! Lucky Pigeon Brewing Co.- Lucky Pigeon started as the dream of Kathleen Pigeon (our original “Lucky Pigeon”) who had to remove gluten from her diet for health reasons. The idea took root during a family vacation where a visit to a craft brewery provoked the thought, “wouldn’t it be great to have a tasting room experience that folks who are gluten-free can enjoy?” Their dedicated gluten-free brewing process allows for those with gluten sensitivities, including Celiac disease, to enjoy the variety and excitement of a small craft brewery without the risk of immune reactions that barley-based beers can induce. Thank you to a Sponsor of the event, Maine Crisp! Maine Crips aren’t your everyday crackers. These delectable crisps are meticulously handcrafted from simple, natural ingredients inspired by the coast-to-coast culinary adventures (and obsessions!) of the founders. Made from naturally gluten-free buckwheat, studded with a special mix of organic seeds, berries, and nuts, they’re awesomely crispy, chewy and nutty. A portion of the ticket sales will be donated to Farm to Table Kids (North Yarmouth, Maine). Their mission is to inspire children & families in kitchens and gardens through happy, hands on learning experiences at our organic educational farm in Maine. Ticket Includes: 8" inch palm leaf plate with Artisanal Cheeses, Charcuterie and all additional accompaniments for creating a perfect plate with Maine Crisp Crackers!Reusable cheese knife4 - 5 oz pours of delicious GF Draft BeerRecipe Card for inspo DIY GF Charcuterie at homeA fun evening out enjoying a Gluten Free Event!Any questions please email: Kaitlin @ [email protected]
