Grand opening of Good Steward Brewery

TIFFIN —The Seneca Regional Chamber Ambassadors hosted a ribbon cutting to celebrate the grand opening of Good Steward Brewery Aug. 8, at 277 Wall St. Good Steward Brewery is Seneca County's fourth brewery. Jaime Navarrete and Yolanda Gonzales own Good Steward Brewery, which aims to revive beers once enjoyed at the former Tiffin Brewery with the help of its production manager, Rose Nguyen, according to information provided by the Seneca Regional Chamber of Commerce. The brewery brings a unique blend of tradition and innovation to Tiffin's brewing scene. According to the chamber, Gonzales and Navarrete have a long-standing commitment to supporting STEM activities in the community. Over the past ten years, they have been actively involved in after-school STEM programs at Tiffin Middle School and Columbian High School. To expand their outreach, they founded STEMMUnity Inc., a not-for-profit organization dedicated to engaging more students in STEM education. STEMMUnity will use a portion of the building housing Good Steward Brewery to continue their important work. What sets Good Steward Brewery apart is its mission-driven approach, according to the chamber. The brewery will donate any profit (after expenses) to support STEMMUnity's goal of building a year-round STEMM facility. This facility will provide FREE activities to area students, allowing them to experience the fun and excitement of STEM. Good Steward Brewery is open from 3-10 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.
