Elevating Sea Veggies: Winter Waters Food Festival
Winter Waters is an exaltation of Pacific Northwest seafood. Though there are workshops and exhibitions, its heart is gastronomic. Participating Oregon restaurants dish glorious meals to dazzle diners and enlighten them about the importance of regenerative seafood, in particular super nutritious farmed seaweed. It is a delicious means by which festival founders—Rachelle Hacmac, Alanna Kieffer and Kristen Penner—seek to rudder the entire seafood industry in a more sustainable direction.
