The Fenway Chalet, Powered by Cicso Brewers

Cheers for a cause this season! The Fenway has teamed up with Cisco Brewers to bring a pop-up beer garden to&nbsp;<a href="https://thefenway.com/news/this-winter-at-the-station/">The Station</a>, serving their award-winning craft beer, wine, and spirits. A portion of the proceeds will benefit&nbsp;<a href="https://fenwaycommunitycenter.org/fenway-cares/">Fenway Cares</a>, an initiative that first came together in March 2020 as six local Fenway neighborhood organizations joined forces to address food insecurity in The Fenway and have since distributed over 25,000 bags of free produce to neighbors in need. Join us for a drink, or two to kick of the holiday season, and while you’re here, make a day of it! Swing by&nbsp;<a href="https://thefenway.com/the-fenway-tree-farm">The Fenway Tree Farm</a>, also at The Station, to pick out your perfect holiday greenery. From statement trees to cozy apartment-sized options, plus wreaths and garlands, it’s your one-stop shop for festive vibes.
