DOING GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITY
In 2013, Big Grove Brewery opened its doors in Solon, Iowa, built on a foundation of quality beer, exceptional food, and genuine Iowa hospitality. Over the past decade, we've experienced incredible success, driven by our commitment to crafting authentic beer and food. Along the way, we’ve made it our mission to give back, partnering with local organizations to uplift the communities that have been by our side.
Giving back to our local community is central to our mission at Big Grove Brewery. We strive to be intentional with our “good giving” and have committed the majority of our charitable efforts to focus on three core categories.
Trees, Trails, & Water
The work to enhance our recreational green spaces, benefiting both our health and well-being and reviving our environment.
Equity & Equality
Working towards a diverse and equitable community while being a good human to other humans.
Our Backyard
Supporting local organizations that work to make the communities we are in a better place to live, thrive, and have opportunity.
Each year Big Grove For Good partners with local nonprofits to help grow and strengthen our communities. We accept in-kind donations and sponsorship requests throughout the year.
Good beer for a good cause
Big Grove believes in giving back to the communities that support us by creating good beer for good causes. We work with our partners to bring people together to support them and the work they do for our communities.
