EVENTS THIS MONTH AT THE BREWERY
Whether its celebrating a birthday, anniversary, wedding, retirement, baby shower, high school reunion or more we host dozens and dozens of events all year. Some, like Carolina Indie Fest and Brews Blues and BBQ, are larger and more planned. Others, like personal celebrations, are spur of the moment. Regardless of the reason we are ready to host you and your party - if you have questions reach out through our Google Business Profile, over Facebook, Instagram or email at info@huggermuggerbrewing.com and let us know how we can help make your event special.
July Events
Here is your listing of all events at the brewery for the month of July:
* Our July 4th First Friday event features a great food truck in Drunken Noodles, a handful of crafty vendors, a fan favorite beer back on tap (Pour Favor Mexican Lager) and a shuttle to the fireworks at Kiwanis Park. We open at noon on July 4th (we're always open at noon on Friday through Sunday) and offer you a cool place to drink, eat and be social until you're ready to head out to see fireworks. There is not nearly enough parking at Kiwanis Park so a trolly has been arranged to leave from Depot Park in downtown Sanford just a couple blocks away from us. The trolley has seating for 30 and will be running until 11:30pm. That's a nice service the city is providing for residents & downtown businesses.
* Sunday the 6th is our regular hijinks with Sanford Yoga & Community Center starting with Yoga & Beer at 11am when the brewery is still quiet and serene-ish. This is followed by Stitch & B**ch where it's always good, but not necessary, to have something to sew/stitch/embroider/crochet/etc.
* line dancing with Buckles and Boots is also on tap twice this month. Sunday the 6th and Sunday the 20th - both starting at 2:30pm - are the dates this month. It is $15 to participate which gets you the beverage of your choice and so much dancing. The beer hall is open to the public during this event so you can always poke your head in and check it out if you would like to learn more.
* Wednesday, July 9th at 6:30pm is our monthly book club meeting. This month we're reading Bury My Bones in the Midnight Soil by Victoria Schwab. Anything about bones and skulls and skull and bones - we're a secret society brewery dontcha know. We have many fine book sellers locally including Sips & Sequels, Monkeykat or Fulfillity Books in Hope Mills. Of course your local library always appreciates the foot traffic and those books are free (but they want them back!)
* we are in the midst of a Tuesday night Trial by Trivia event where we try out new trivia hosts. Join in and let us know who you thought was the best of the bunch! Trivia starts at 7:00pm and can take many different forms. In another couple weeks we will have a more permanent trivia host and can share how they organize things at that time.
* our Bier Garten Garden Club joins us again on Monday, July 14th at 6:30pm. The topic this month is Adapting to Climate- Soil testing, watering, pests, shade/sun, timing, & trellising. Wow, that's a lot to take in! Grab a beer and learn how to turn your gardening thumb green.
* our Thursday afternoons we are a pickup site for community supported agriculture (CSA) boxes courtesy of CV Pilson Farm. These boxes are filled with fresh fruits and veggies sourced from small area farms. You can subscribe for a month at a time and pause/resume your pickups (at no cost) at any time to accommodate busy lifestyles. Not all of us can get to the weekend markets consistently so this is a great option.
* A couple crafty classes are coming your way this month. Andrew Wells is having his second pottery class of the summer on July 12th and 20th. Tickets are on Eventbrite. These classes are very laid back affairs but folks return multiple times to learn from Andrew and craft their own drink creations. And on Monday, July 21st is Crafts & Drafts with Jessica Rigsbee. Jessica has seemingly limitless creativity and it's all smiles at her crafting events. Tickets from both events includes a drink of your choice.
* Jessica is also offering a kids art camp the weeks of July 14-18 and July 28-August 1 - these are 90 minute sessions from 1pm-2:30pm Monday through Friday. Keep those kiddos engaged and loving these summer months. I've linked each date to the registration and more information pages for each event.
* We close out the month with a food truck rodeo - that event has yet to be posted on Facebook but the trucks are scheduled and include Harmon's Deutsche Kuche, Thai Smile Street Food, The Blue Window & Thicc Burger. 5-9pm are the hours for the rodeo. I love these events, you can find a new truck you love or order from an old favorite. Don't forget the beer!
And with that I rest my weary typing fingers and leave the next part up to you. Come order a beer and get social with some of the fine folks enjoying these things to do. Check our Facebook events page for details on all these and more. See you in the brewery!
