BBQ Bash (August 31, 2016) Wit & Wisdom helped folks savor some final flavors of the summer with “Rye & Roast,” a patio party that offered barbecue dishes from several local chefs, served along with Sagamore Rye cocktails concocted just for the event. The whole gist was to highlight American specialties and help raise funds and promote MADE: In America, an organization that helps American farmers, foragers and craft producers.
