A Taste of Westport: June 20

Westport Rivers Vineyard & Winery will host a local wine & food festival fundraiser, A Taste of Westport, on Saturday, June 20, from 1-4pm. It will be held under one tent on the lawn at their winery in Westport, MA.

Local food, wine and beer will be the focus as guests can sample the wonderful flavors Westport has to offer. A portion of the proceeds from this event will go to support the preservation of farm land in Westport, through the Westport AgCom. Westport’s finest food providers, farmers, cheese makers, bakers, and more will be on hand to sample what they do best as event goers enjoy the sights at the vineyard and the sounds of live music. The event will also feature, Buzzards Bay Brewing, Running Brook Vineyards and Travessia Urban Winery, all of which source from the small town of Westport.

This is a rain or shine, 21+ event, under one tent and all are encouraged to dress farm casual and weather appropriate. Space is very limited and this small intimate wine & food festival will sell out! Local restaurants, caterers, and producers will be offering small samples to taste, as well as an array of locally grown and produced wines and beer will be on hand. There will be a cash raw bar available featuring locally sourced shellfish. Some vendors and participants will also have items for sale if you’re interested in bringing something back home with you.

Tickets are $45 per person. Cash raw bar and vendor items for sale excluded.

Advanced ticket sales only. Tickets and information are always available during regular business hours at the Westport Rivers Company Store located at the winery. Tickets also available online.
