An overcast sunset at Glade Road Growing
Home to Rising Silo Brewery
"Glade Road Growing is a small family farm on leased land across the street from the Heritage Park in Blacksburg. We raise certified naturally grown produce and pasture-raised organic-fed meats and eggs. Yes, we raise it right here in the town limits of Blacksburg.
We believe that healthy food can be grown right here and that engaging in organic farming forms lasting connections within our community, improves the soils directly beneath us and strengthens human health. Our farming methods are based on building and maintaining soil health, biodiversity, and community involvement (read: fun). Come by and introduce yourself- we’d love to meet you."
"The seed for Rising Silo Brewery was planted in the Autumn of 2014 at the Farm at Glade Road Growing. Brew-creator and friend of the farm, Greg Zielske, is tending to his craft beer garden with diligence and compassion as the conditions for growth and community building flourish.
Rising Silo Brewery is a truly unique movement for Blacksburg, and one of Southwest Virginia's only farm breweries. We boast a tap line up ranging from 10-14 beers with a brew for every palate. All beers are brewed with exclusively organic malts and water from the Farm's well. Produce from Glade Road Growing and other local farms are creatively incorporated in many of our beers and vary seasonally based on availability.
Here you can pick up fresh veggies, dairy and meat raised on-site through Glade Road Growing and other friends of the farm, fill your growler or enjoy a pint on draft, take a walk about the farm to bask in the beauty of the New River Valley, spark conversation or just relax in the company of friends old and new.
The brewery is currently operating with a 3-barrel brewing system on site at the farm. We are starting small, each batch crafted with great care and attentiveness.
Come by and see us!"

All lines lead to my niece, who is a senior in high school. I can't believe she's already 17... where did the time go? 33/52

Yesterday was an awesome day to take a photo of the British Columbia Parliament Buildings located in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
It was pretty quiet at the Parliament Buildings first thing in the morning.
The landscape has changed a bit on State Street since my last visit, after riots left many business with broken storefronts and in places murals.
