Old Fashioned Fest 2024, our third annual celebration of one of the world’s first, and still enduring favorite cocktail, was the best one yet. I’d like for our Simple Goodness planning team to take credit for this, for bringing brown spirit lovers together at our restaurant in historic Wilkeson, Washington to drink whiskey, get cocktail inspired ink from Electric Beauty tattoo pop up, and for bringing in Washington’s premier country music artist Aaron Crawford to entertain the crowd. Or, for providing a savvy VIP experience, or the all-too-important detail of securing tents at the last minute when the weather turned to a drizzling rain.
