This year Sacramento’s iconic and delicious Farm-to-Fork Festival celebrates its 10th anniversary, and as always will serve up some incredible music alongside the tasty farm fresh food. Running from the 22-23 of September with free entry, the festival welcomes everyone to come and taste a little bit of Sacramento.
The Farm-to-Fork festival has paired good music with great food since its inception, and 2023 will be no different. Local chefs such as Sean Rumery, Craig Takehara, and Rebecca Campbell will share their knowledge and some tasty food, and musicians such as Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals and Cannons will be performing in free concerts on Sacramento’s Capitol Mall.
The festival’s 2023 musical line up will feature free concerts from Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Cannons, Danielle Ponder, Eric Gales, and Zia Victoria beginning Friday September 22 on Capitol Mall. Whilst enjoying the music visitors can also choose from more than a mile’s worth of street vendors that come to the festival to share food made from the fresh local produce.
Beginning in 2013 Sacramento’s Farm-to-Fork festival celebrates the region’s incredible food and agriculture, the city is surrounded by rich farmland so farm fresh produce is plentiful and Sacramento has been dubbed America’s farm-to-fork capital as a result. The festival introduces people to the chefs, farmers, ranchers, vintners and brewers who are bringing delicious food and drinks to the city’s tables every day.
As well as food and music, the festival also highlights the region’s vineyards and wineries at the Legends of Wine tastings, 40 expertly selected wineries set up in front of the State Capitol, and welcome visitors to sample delicious wine from across the region, often poured by the makers themselves, alongside selections of cheese and other bites to go with them.
