Episode 89: A Celebration of Agave

A new festival is coming up in Champaign, and it’s all about a trending spirit. Terri and Jordan chat with Scott from Big Grove Tavern and Mike from Punch! Bar & Lounge about the new Champaign Agave Fest, happening April 30–May 5. This countywide extravaganza will feature family-owned distillers, vendors, tastings, and education about agave at spots around the area throughout the week. Tune in to hear how you can participate and get tickets for the Grand Tasting Event.

 

Of course, it’s also Christie Clinic Illinois Race Weekend, and many other fun ways to get out and about this weekend. Tune in at chambanaproud.com or wherever you podcast to start planning.
