ROCHESTER, Minn. — Attention eaters: Feast!, the largest celebration of local foods in the tri-state area, will return for its fourth year Dec. 2, at the Mayo Civic Center, Rochester, MN.
On Saturday, Dec. 2 more than 100 of the region’s best food artisans will bring their inspired creations to Rochester for the public to sip, sample and shop—see the list of businesses and products at local-feast.org/2017_
Bring the whole family! Everyone will enjoy the food sampling and cooking demos. Children can manifest their own creativity at an activity area designed in partnership with the Minnesota Children’s Museum Rochester. Meanwhile, those over 21 can indulge in a selection of the region’s best craft beer, wine and cider. Purchase your favorite local foods right from the foodmaker whether you are stocking up or purchasing gifts. Some vendors can accept credit cards, but cash is preferred.
Products will range from sauerkraut, pickles and salsa to fresh, responsibly-harvested meat and salmon, to gluten-free baking mixes, flavored vinegars, chocolates and honey, to name a few. Some are returning from previous years, while others will certainly be fun new discoveries. It’s a totally unique shopping experience.
