On Aug 13th PeachFest, to be held outdoors in downtown Atlanta and produced by the innovative team behind Cochon555 and their charity, Piggy Bank. 100% of the profits will go to charity on the day.
PeachFest 2017 will feature innovative gastronomic takes on a host of local farm products, but
there is also another important theme for the day: local communities. By staging a culinary
revival in the streets of downtown, the goal is also to highlight the dynamic tastes and energies
of Atlanta’s core urban district alongside agricultural spotlights. Among the Atlanta businesses
that are to be highlighted are Pearson Farm, The Turnup Truck, The Wrecking Bar, and
Hamthropology – Registered Ossabaw Island Pork, and many more to be announced on the
website www.peachfest.org.
Top Georgian farmers, chefs, distillers, and brewers will collaborate to give the state’s finest agricultural products flavor and form rarely seen before.
Notable participants include, Terry
Koval of Wrecking Bar, Bryan Furman of B’S Cracklin BBQ, and Richard Bradford of Pre-Made
Paleo amongst many more. Below, please find sampling of what to expect from the day’s,
