Sorry you missed the third annual Edible Food Fest, Orange Virginia on August 8, 2015, hosted by the Orange Downtown Alliance and edible Blue Ridge Magazine, is a family-oriented educational event, dedicated to strengthening relationships between small-scale producers and consumers.
Everyone had fun enjoying the Children’s activities, workshops for adults, tastings, and music. All part of the Edible Food Fest’s goals to increase awareness of today’s most topical food issues. One of the most popular “ingredients” of the festival was cooking demonstrations by some of the area’s most admired culinary masters.
At the heart of the edible Food Fest are educational programs on sustainable agriculture, organic gardening, soil and composting, seed saving, edible landscaping and other means of healthier living. Make plans to visit the 2016 Food Fest the second week of August.
