This family-friendly event features free cooking demonstrations and tastings from Cooperative Extension, as well as delicious meals from Kalico Kitchen Food Truck. Explore mushroom foraging and identification tools at Poppy's Wildcraft trailer boutique, and discover sustainable and ethically sourced wild-foraged mushrooms, tinctures, teas, and seasonings from Blue Ridge Chaga Connection. Kids can enjoy free activities in the Kids Corner. Don’t miss out on seasonal vendors offering local produce, meats, eggs, honey, artisan foods, and more. Plus, take advantage of SNAP/EBT acceptance with a doubling offer up to $20 for produce and mushrooms. Enjoy live music from The JackTown Ramblers in this vibrant celebration of food and community!
