Taste of the Blackwood is the major food and wine festival in the Blackwood Valley Region, a market-style event designed especially for food and wine lovers. Entertain the entire family with plenty of samples, free workshops and cooking demonstrations running throughout the day. While the kids create something in a workshop just for them, you can learn how to make a water-wise wicking bed, take a master class in olive oil appreciation, or learn how to make sourdough bread and take home some starter culture.
