GEE ART……recent flooding of GA should show you how good the infrastructure for drainage is…..also how much pollution goes into those lakes and streams. The Hooch is dealing with all sorts of problems. Glad to see a business that is forward thinking

If they didn’t collect it, it would fill lakes and replenish water tables. Am I wrong? Sounds like a catch 22.

You go David and Crawford!
I just wish someone would spotlight all the other ecologically conscientious things you are doing with the restaurants, such as using part of the spent grains from the brewing process to make spent grain bread for the restaurants, and giving the rest of the spent grain to local organic farms, who compost it and use it in their farming, and then the restaurant uses these organically grown veggies on their menu…neat cycle, right??
and using the used kitchen oil to power the Biermog (firetruck they use for special events, etc,), using the used kitchen oil to power the beer making process,
etc…
