We are asking that as a local food blogger, you consider posting information about this event for Monday, March 14th. We are asking all local food bloggers to do the same, as this is a grassroots organization and conference, and we felt that the best way to reach our intended audience was through local food bloggers as your audience is our intended audience.

Tasting sessions include:
• Fruit wine tasting
• Honey tasting
