The South African Food & Wine Festival

---

At the South African Food & Wine Festival, we 've learned a few things over the years about conjuring an authentic taste of South Africa in the middle of Virginia.  Our philosophy is grounded in the belief that creating good food at the event requires a blending of old and new, expected and unexpected, imported and local, passion and skill.  Our approach is simple:

- Find good local chefs with an adventurous spirit and an ability to work their magic with food & fire, outdoors, in a festival environment; 

-If they're not South African, give them inspiration and expert advice on traditional South African cuisine; - If they are South African, help them learn the ropes of local health department ordinances and the logistics of serving outdoors

-Supply plenty of imported spices, sauces and boerewors made by South Africans in USDA inspected facilities. 

-Stock The Market with a wide variety of imported South African goods, like Ouma Rusks, peri peri hot sauces and Mrs Balls Chutney, that would bring any homesick South African to tears.  

MAGIC

We're excited to bring in new talent this year alongside our veteran vendors and hope you'll enjoy what we've come up with.  

So gather your friends & fam and get ready to enjoy a fantastic day of live  music, great food and  delicious South African wine. 

See you in September!
