Amarelle's crab succotash

Loads of our favorite food and wine producers will be serving their specialties at the third annual HARVEST Festival Tasting on Saturday, August 25 from 6 to 9 p.m. Artisans from the North and South forks and Shelter Island that have been featured in Edible East End are participating, not only to promote themselves and our region of easy locavorism, but also to raise money for three charities that touch so many residents of the East End–East End Hospice, Group for the East End and Peconic Land Trust. Tickets, $125 per person until August 11, $150 after that and at the door (if available), are available here.
