The Wooded Island was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted as an oasis for fairgoers from being amongst the crowds during a long summer day at the Fair. The Wooded Island showcased Japanese gardens that fairgoers could stroll through. At night, it was adorned with beautiful stone and paper lanterns. You can still visit the Wooded Island in Jackson Park, which has now grown to be a sanctuary for native Midwestern plants and birds.
HISTORY OF SEIPP'S BREWING CO.

Conrad Seipp was a German immigrant who was one of Chicago's original brewers. He started making beer in 1854 and after surviving the Chicago Fire, the Conrad Seipp Brewing Co. became the city's biggest brewery for decades and sold their beers at the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893.

The origins of Fratelli Branca date back to 1845 when Bernardino Branca and his three sons started producing and distributing Fernet-Branca. It soon became the World's most popular digestivo, made with over 27 herbs and spices, that to this day are a closely guarded family secret.

FERNET-BRANCA is now a days considered to be the best bitter ever known, and its beneficial effects are highly warranted around the world.
