Awesome Friends: Mighty Axe Hops

"The people you surround yourself with influence your behaviors, so choose friends who have healthy habits." - Dan Buettner

I choose to believe healthy habits = following your heart, adventuring through life, and making a positive difference in the world. These are the types of people I choose to surround myself with, and be influenced by.

I'm excited to document and intentionally reflect on the incredible people in my life. Those that help me to have perspective, and inspire me to live my purpose. Eric Sannerud is one of those people.

The population outside my hometown reads 343 people - I'm the granddaughter of two farmers, with several uncles and cousins who commit their lives to farming. Naturally, even after moving to the city, I've befriended - farmers - this time of the urban variety.

While it a quarter acre hops farm is a little different than hundreds of acres and cows on a dairy farm, the dedication and hard work required is much the same.  I appreciate local food, and appreciate local beer even more! The fact that Eric grows Mighty Axe Hops for locally made Mighty Axe IPA makes me quite happy. 

Mighty Axe IPA first taps this Friday I'm pretty sad that I can't be there for the release. Check it out 4pm to close at Sociable Cider Werks on Jan 31 - more details here. Thankful to know such awesome people, and  I'm looking forward to my first pint of Mighty Axe IPA very soon!
