**POSTPONED***International Women’s Day Luncheon/Panel Discussion With Women in Fermentation

March 11 @ 11:00 am - 3:30 pm

Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the event to another date. 

We thank you for your support for our International Women’s Day Women in Fermentation event. We will take this time to plan a larger, more dynamic event for you to enjoy in the future. Please stay tuned for the new date being announced soon.

Join us for a lively discussion on Women in Fermentation. We will hear firsthand from women in the local beer, wine, and spirits industry.

As we Embrace Equity this Women’s Day, we will hear what it’s like to be a female in a male dominated industry; in this case the production of beer, wine, and liquor.

Despite women being the original brewers, representation of women and minorities in the fermentation industry is extremely low. In Windsor-Essex, we are lucky to have numerous women that work in these industries and are very skilled at what they do.

Join us for a luncheon and panel discussion with brewers, winemakers, and distillers while also sampling some of their creations. Guests will receive an exclusive tasting glass to keep at the end of the tasting.  

The day will also include a silent auction with items and experiences donated from many local businesses, a raffle, and an optional documentary screening on Women in Beer at the conclusion of the discussion.

This luncheon is not just for women either! Anyone with an interest in fermentation, beer, wine, and/or liquor is welcome! Partial proceeds from auction and ticket sales will go to Amherstburg Community Services and Pink Boots Canada.
