It’s hot. You know it, we know it, everyone knows it.

Florida School of Woodwork and Hidden Springs has a solution: Head inside and make your own goblet or beer mug. Don’t know how? Of course you don’t. That’s where Florida School or Woodwork comes in — they’ve worked out a sweet deal whereby you come in, make a beer mug or goblet, and Hidden Springs Ale Works will fill it for you, for free. 

Seriously, though, you guys: How cool are you, bringing your own wooden wine goblet to the next summer pool party? While everyone else sips pinot out of those plastic poolside glasses (insert rant about our oceans here), you’ll have an uber-sustainable wooden goblet that won’t hurt a single turtle or ruin the planet. Plus, you have wine. Way we see it, everyone wins.

See the schedule below.
