We invite you to join us for the 2012 Big Sur Chanterelle Cook-Off and Festival on February 24 and 25 to celebrate the unique natural wonders of Big Sur, the extraordinary culinary skill of local chefs, world-class local vitners and brewmasters, and the talent of local artists.
With its remarkable bounty and beauty, Big Sur is the centerpiece of the extraordinary California Central Coast. And chanterelles, unlike any other mushroom anywhere, are the epitome of Big Sur's exquisite natural world.
This festival will be a special event for chanterelle and Syrah lovers, a community celebration honoring a tradition of protecting our natural resources, and a benefit for an important community cause.
This year's event will raise funds to benefit health and wellness community programs at the Big Sur Health Center (http://www.bigsurhealthcenter.org).
