Bingo, Birria, and Bean Planting Adventures

Broadcasting live from Lake Country, Wisconsin, the crew dives into local Thursday night traditions—bingo, wings, and $5 Tito’s at the bustling Hideaway. Homesteading takes center stage with Sarah Marenes discussing companion planting, featuring a seven-year-old gardener’s Hawaiian bean-cucumber duo. Chef Ellie Lawton shares a messy yet mouthwatering recipe for birria-topped grilled corn, perfect for summer feasts or makeshift tacos. The episode teases next week’s pig face culinary adventure, and a deep dive into the Midwest’s beloved supper clubs. From outdoor fun to kitchen antics, it’s a spirited celebration of Wisconsin’s vibrant local culture. Additional technical support by Morris Original LLC. Born in Wisconsin and making their adventurous lives here, Joel Kleefisch and Ellie Lawton have truly been Raised in the Woods.
