On a personal note, this February Local Food Potluck marks April's first year as program manager of the IFFFC and her move to Indianapolis. April's first day on the job was the 22nd of February 2010; a week before Food Con. April's first look into the strong Indianapolis Arts and Food Movement.

"I would like to thank you all for making my first year working in the community a success. Everyday is a new adventure and every challenge is a new chance to grow. After living here a year, I continue to love Indy, love the Food Movement, and love every moment in this inspirational, creative, passionate community. Thank you for making what I do possible!" -April

Dining ware will be limited. Please bring your own plate and utensils for yourself and your family, if possible. We will have a few to spare.
Think Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recover.

More about New Day Meadery:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New Day Meadery is a true family owned and operated entrepreneurial endeavor. The husband and wife team of Brett Canaday and Tia Agnew work tirelessly as the proprietors of New Day Meadery. Brett, your Merry Meadmaker, takes great care in crafting our meads while Tia orchestrates all marketing and operational matters. They, along with a dedicated group of family and friends, form the main labor force when it comes to crafting New Day Meadery fine honey wine.

Brett and Tia started making mead in 2001 when they moved to Brett's family farm and started keeping bees. Their mead making began as an enjoyable pastime, a way to combine their love of bee keeping, gardening and good food during their off-time. While pursuing their careers outside of mead making, they strove to identify a business they could pursue that would allow them to remain in Indiana and tap into both their professional talents and passion for local food.
