Past Program Leader

Yard Owl Brewery

Twenty-five ago, James and Michelle Walsh combined their shared excitement for the restaurant business and opened Mudd Puddle Café in New Paltz, NY. Fresh roasted coffee, hand crafted food with a focus on community was the inspiration from the beginning. In 2014, James expanded his passion for fine crafted beverages by brewing Yard Owl beer which is inspired by traditional Belgian and European farmhouse brewing techniques. These creations can be enjoyed at Mudd Puddle Café.
