According to their website, Southern Makers
is a one day event celebrating Alabama creativity and innovation by
bringing together highly curated, handpicked top talent - artists,
chefs, breweries, craftsmen, designers - for one fantastic gathering to
explore the contemporary side of Alabama's heritage of textiles, music,
craftsmanship, and food.
Natasha
McCrary of 1818 Farms of Mooresville, AL and Tasia Malakasis of Belle
Chevre of Elkmont, AL and their products have been selected as "2014
Makers" and have been invited to be part of this annual event in May at the Union Station Train Shed in downtown Montgomery, AL.
Part of the Southern Makers experience is exploring the movers and shakers of products made in Alabama. The Conversation Series are packed with opportunities for "...discussions with Alabama's top talent centered on taking the best of
southern traditions in architecture food, fashion and design and
applying them in a modern, sustainable world."
Select "2014 Shakers" will have workshops - providing attendees with an opportunity to see them action. In 2013, Tasia Malakasis brought the natural goodness of goat cheesemaking Belle Chevre-style to Southern Makers.
Tickets for this event go on sale in the spring at the Southern Makers website.
