Episode Synopsis

A 5th generation, certified organic farm in Paxton, is shaping our palates to taste the difference in their homegrown spirits. Silver Tree Beer & Spirits, a sibling-owned distillery, is keeping it entirely local, down to the barrels that age their whiskey. Listen as Terri talks to Dallas Glazik to learn about the beginning of the business, the distillation process, and how we can experience their various offerings.
 
Stay tuned in to plan your perfect weekend in the Champaign-Urbana area, with art fairs, antiques, robots, cover bands, and inspiring short films.
