I had the pleasure of attending Habitat for Humanity's third annual Hops for Homes Beer Festival! This was the perfect way to learn more about all HFH does and have so much fun while doing it.

This summer fundraiser brought together the community, local breweries, wineries, cideries, distilleries, food trucks, musicians, and vendors. I highly recommend you try to attend this event in the future. It was so worth it.

Let’s continue to support and spread the word about the amazing work Habitat for Humanity does!
