The Northwest’s Premier Chicory Festival
Inspired by the sagre (festivals, usually honoring regional cuisine) of Italy, Chicory Week is a festive collaboration between local farms and the Northwest’s best restaurants. This week and weekend is educational, delicious, social, and bitter in the best way.
In 2022, we held in-person events at The Redd in Portland, Oregon. Recordings from the Radicchio Symposium, an all-day educational event for growers and sellers, will be available soon on the Culinary Breeding Network channel.
You can always watch what happened in 2020, when our event went virtual: check out RadTV on YouTube for timeless growing advice, recipes, and radicchio lore.
We are Chicory Week
We are an organized group of farmers, food lovers, restaurateurs, and vegetable enthusiasts. For one week each year, we promote the heck out of radicchio and its place in the PNW food scene. Our goal is to increase radicchio consumption, production, and enjoyment by sharing our passion with others.
Though our focus is only one week, we live to celebrate radicchio whenever it is in season, and we support growers of other amazing local produce at all times.
You can participate by supporting your local foodshed and buying radicchio and other vegetables at farmers markets and local farms.
