Food, Wine, and...Highland Cows?
By Jamie Kauffold | Aug. 16, 2025
The inaugural Traverse City Food & Wine festival runs Aug. 20-24, and while events are selling out quickly, here’s what we see open at press time: Aug. 22, Meet Bel Lago North Farm’s Highland cows and Katahdin sheep while learning about how they help sustainability at the farm/vineyard. Also Aug. 22, the National Writers Series presents A Conversation with Antoni Porowski (producer and star of Netflix’s Queer Eye) at City Opera House. The Grand Tasting will be held at Open Space Park on Aug. 23. Sample local produce and products, sip on local wines and other craft beverages, and catch food celebs on the Main Stage. For more info, a complete schedule of events, and tickets visit traversecity.com/food-wine.
