  1. On Monday, March 16th, the Devil’s Backbone Brewery held a benefit for the Nelson County Pantry. They donated 25% of their gross food and non-alcoholic drink proceeds to the Pantry. The theme was “Neighbors Helping Neighbors” and it was a “spring fling” to remember!!! Good food, live music, lots of laughs and great brews. The duo Kim and Jimbo Carey played some good mountain music from 4 to 6 and Conny Roussos and his “Hot Jam Band” played from 7 to 9. Through the contribution by the brewery and the generous donations by the patrons, the Pantry cleared over $1,300 from this event.
