…………………………………………………………………………………
Hobo
Chefin' is a farm tradition that has evolved from our earliest days
of dream chasing,farm
construction,
and often after a long days work... We would hang at the fire pit to cook,
eat, gloat & scheme...
Farmish
funk, ingenuity and need for ease has moved us along from the pit, to tarp
drawn shanties to what
is now our cookin' shack...
Back to top
FAMILY BEER & BEVERAGE GARDEN-
A "good-time" gathering place with
farmish funk...
Serving
the Folks of the Chippewa Valley and our Visiting Friends!
Retail Shop... Snacks & Beverages... Music
Box... Stage... Fire Pits... & Ponds to wonder about...
It's RAIN OR SHINE unless
the wet is comin' at us sideways-
Recently
we have put up a large roof for shade and shelter... we screened it in...
ran a few speaker wires...
improved our music box... and acquired a beer license.
The Bullfrog's Family Beer and Beverage Garden will now grow and be part of the scene...
Come
and have influence... incidental
drinking!
