Why We Support Washington Wild and the Brewshed Alliance
Washington Wild is on a mission to protect wild places in the state of Washington by bringing together communities around conservation. This mission is something agricultural processors, like us, care deeply about. One of the ways they do this is through the Brewshed Alliance - a group of over 90 brewers, processors, and other industry partners who gather together to help protect the biggest ingredient in beer, water.
The Skagit River is the lifeblood for our growers and our business. Most of the grains we malt are grown here, which means we need this water to be clean and protected. By working with organizations who are caring for the environment and working to build ways to connect like-minded groups, like the Washington Wild Brewshed Alliance, we can have a greater impact on our shared goals - keeping the water clean for future generations.
Most of our growers are on multi-generational farms and they are also looking forward to the future of their lands. By working together to protect these important areas, including but not limited to the Skagit River, we are helping all Washingtonians enjoy locally grown and produced products, like our malts.
We’ve supported many collaboration brews to support the Brewshed Alliance and are proud of the work they have done to protect watersheds in Washington. We always look forward to hearing about how we can support their next mission!
