I tasted:
Soft taco - pretty good but not amazing. Except for the salsa: delish.
Homemade eggnog latte - sweet for me, but tasty.
Green chili mac & cheese - excellent & unique flavor, but expensive and rather cold since it was pre-prepared.
Mediterranean chicken sandwich with roasted red papers & feta - tasty but a bit greasy.
Horseraddish pecan cheddar - yum.
Schwarma with lamb & chicken - awesome awesome awesome.
BUY FOOD
Homemade jams, local honey (I recommend the lemon honey), baking mixes from the gristmill, including gluten-free options. They have the best grits around!
LEARN ABOUT FOOD
I highly recommend the cheese making demonstration! The bread making seminar has interesting info, but presentation was rather dry.
For food growers: there are heirloom seeds for a sale, and a seminar about why preserving them is important. Get info about aquaponics & sustainable agriculture.
There are also booths and demonstrations on pasta making, beekeeping, food preservation, and distilling essential oils.
