The Restaurants and Bakeries of Local Food Fest

For well over a decade Castle Hill Inn and Newport Restaurant Group have generously hosted our annual fundraiser celebration of local food — Local Food Fest! We were deeply saddened not to be able to gather together at Castle Hill this year with so many inspiring local growers and chefs. This event has become a very special summer tradition, and could not have happened for the last 13 years without the generosity, enthusiasm, and skill of the local food community.

Many of the chefs and bakers who have participated at previous Local Food Fests have seen their businesses and teams challenged like never before during this global pandemic. Though we couldn’t be together in person last month, the team at Farm Fresh RI is with you in spirit.

We thank you for the many years of nourishment and enjoyment you have provided to Farm Fresh and the entire local community. We look forward to a future where we can enjoy fresh local food together again, and wish you all the very best.
