Local producers will showcase their finest food and drinks at Eynesbury homestead later this month.

The historic homestead and farm village will host the annual Regional Tastes Festival, celebrating the best food and wine the region has to offer.

Chefs and wine experts from across the state will join the festivities, which will also feature displays from more than 60 providores, wineries and breweries.

Festival participants will be able to sample and shop for coffee, charcuterie, olive oils, cakes, and more.

Food trucks will also be on site, while there will be live music and a kids’ zone featuring magicians, a petting zoo, jumping castle and a fun fair.

Tickets are $15 for adults, while children under 15 can enter for free.

The festival is on Saturday, September 24, from 11am until 8pm.
