(AUDIO) KHUM INTERVIEW: Blue Ox Hosts Second Annual Beer Fest Benefiting Humboldt Historical Society
(AUDIO) Brandi Welts-Soderberg on KHUM
Local history buff Brandi Welts-Soderberg sat down with Toby in the Morning at KHUM this week to talk about the second annual Beer Fest at the Blue Ox Millworks in Eureka this Saturday.
The upcoming event benefits both the Humboldt Historical Society and Blue Ox Millworks, a fully functioning Victorian job shop that produces custom architectural millwork for historic homes and new construction projects around the United States. But it’s more than that — Blue Ox is a school, a historic park, and a haven for craftsmen.
