The North American Organic Brewers Festival's main objective is to raise awareness about natural products, sustainable living and organic beer. The association provides up to nearly 60 organic beers and ciders from within the nation. Farmhouse Ale style of beer to rich and hearty stouts are also served on the festival. The celebration also include live music entertainment, display of heirlooms and organic food, sustainability-oriented vendors and educational activities for children. This is non-profit event which is celebrated annually.
The festival is also aiming to have a friendly beer festival in North-America. Festival attendees are using compostable corn starch glasses to get beer sample. These glasses are made from domestically grown crown from a solar-powered company. The event organizers have also provided some onsite composting and recycling stations for festival wasted. Food vendors are also asked to use same organic products for their plates and cutlery. For the electricity, a combination of biodiesel and solar generators will be used. It is said that volunteers wear cotton and hemp clothing. The signage on the area is reusable as well.
The NAOBF started and was organized in 2003 at Port Halling Brewing in Gresham, Oregon by Craig Nicholls. The festival then took a 24-months hiatus when Nichole opened his first certified all organic brewery in Oregon. Although the event is about promoting organics, animals are not allowed on the event except for the service animals.
Victory Gardens also promotes organic products. These organics and heirloom seeds can be classified in different varieties at Amazon.
Victory Gardens Shop came from a long line of Gardeners and Farmers. The family inherited the trait of Gardening and promotes 100% Organic, Non-GMO, and Non-Hybrid Seeds.
