Slow Down at Intuition Ale, Friday, May 11, 2012

[MissMinda]

It is sold out. I'm glad I got my tickets early! Here is the info from their facebook page:

You are invited to the second annual Slow Down with Slow Food First Coast at Intuition Ale Works on Friday, May 11th starting at 6pm.

Tickets are now on sale in the tap room at Intuition Ale or online at http://slowfoodfirstcoastslowdown.eventbrite.com/.

The Slow Down will feature local restaurants, farmers and artisans that have been awarded the prestigious Snail of Approval award from Slow Food First Coast. It will be a food fair of sorts, with locally-crafted brews and delicious appetizers featuring fresh, local ingredients from some of Northeast Florida’s finest small family farms prepared by some of the top chefs in our area.

Come out and meet the Slow Food First Coast board members and get to know where your food (and drink) comes from!

The $15 ticket price gains entrance to the event, food samples and one pint of Intuition Ale Works brew. All money from ticket sales goes directly to Slow Food First Coast.

Last year's event drew three times as many attendees as expected so we are capping tickets this year and expect the event to quickly sell out.

So jealous. Wish I knew about it. Would love to go.

I was really surprised it wasn't already a post on here when I checked today. I was looking to see who was going. Next time I'll look sooner and post the information. I'm really enjoying exploring what is happening in our city. Makes it even more pleasant to live here.
