2015 Battle of the Beans

HighCraft families had a ton of fun this year at the Sailer’s annual Harvest Party and Chili Cook Off.

Once again, the chili crockpot competition was INTENSE! There were more than 25 entries in the 2015 Battle of the Beans, with names like “Ghoulish Green,” “Witch’s Stew” and a red chili simply called “Texas.” (And trust us … you don’t mess with Texas!)

It was such a treat to carve pumpkins, gather around the bonfire and reflect on another amazing year as a team. We love our HighCraft family.

Thanks for hosting, Dana and Dwight!
