Ah Wednesday๐Ÿ˜Œ. Some call it Hump Day, some say its child is full of woe, but can we all agree that it's a great day to treat yourself?๐Ÿคฉ

๐Ÿฅจ๐ŸปBeer and pretzels are a classic combo, but if you're looking to add a little indulgence to your week, get it at The Owego Brewing Co., where the beer is brewed in house and the pretzels are soft and homemade! Judging by Anthony's face, you won't be disappointed! Stop by for Eat Local New York Restaurant Week going on now through April 26 in Tioga County, NY! Go to experiencetioga.com for menus and info.

The word is out! Tioga County has some seriously "Hot" Farmers. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŒพ

Brickhouse Pizza Co.'s Hot Farmers pizza is a nod to three of Tioga's farm products: corn, honey and cheese. We hope you try it and it inspires you to visit one of our farm stores, markets or farm stands for the quality meat, cheese, produce, honey, syrup and more that's grown and made right here in Tioga. And of course enjoy the (ahem๐Ÿ˜) "beautiful scenery" along the way!
