Beer, Wine & the Great Outdoors

The smell of the campfire. The crisp in the air. The laughter of friends you just met. And a glass of locally-grown deliciousness! Surrounded by nature, both Sleep Creek Vineyard and Big Thorn Brewery offer autumn experiences that will remind you why Vermilion County is so welcoming.

Through October 25. Fridays 5-9 pm.

You buy one of Sleepy Creek’s award-winning wines and the vineyard will provide the hot dogs and fire to roast them over, as long as the weather allows. Enjoy live music from 6:30 to 8:30 pm too. Follow Sleepy Creek on Facebook for details.

The Tree Bar
