13th Annual North Fork Foodie Tour

A self-guided behind-the-scenes tour of local farms, vineyards and food artisans.

The North Fork of Long Island is famous for its delectable fare. Here, the tradition of farming has continued and expanded. Now it's taken on yet another life as artisans have begun to produce distinctive foods and explore methods of sustainable agriculture.

The 13th Annual North Fork Foodie Tour will include 20 locations representing a wide array of food producers on the North Fork, all providing behind-the-scenes tours of their farms and other establishments.

The Foodie Tour is a self-guided tour (similar to a house tour) and provides the opportunity for all who attend to visit North Fork producers of unique, local, artisanal food, wine and beer. The North Fork Foodie Tour continues to showcase the best of what the North Fork has to offer. Hear, touch, feel and taste what makes the products, the people that produce them and the North Fork so special. There will be fun educational and delicious activities for all ages.
