Tomato TastingGrand Preview Dinner and Evening with Joel Salatin
Pre-Festival Activities on Friday, September 14th, include a variety of premium workshops and the Grand Preview Dinner & Evening with Joel Salatin.

Joel Salatin has given us salad bar beef, pastured poultry, eggmobile eggs, and pigaerator pork. His passionate defense of “small farms, local food systems, and the right to opt out of the conventional food paradigm” has brought fame to Polyface Farm, where he is a 3rd generation alternative farmer in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley.
