THE EVENT
American Fare
Saturday, May 2, 2026
American Fare – Made in Lodi is a walk-around celebration of the people, flavors, and craftsmanship that define Lodi. Set across the gardens and grounds of Appellation Lodi – Wine & Roses Resort and Spa, this exploratory culinary experience invites guests to sip, taste, smell, see, and feel the fabric of the community firsthand—where everything you encounter is grown, made, or crafted right here in Lodi.
At the heart of the experience are ten market-style tasting booths, each thoughtfully pairing one chef, one grower, and one winemaker to showcase a seasonal expression of Lodi food, wine, and produce. Along the way, guests will discover a curated artisan market, a build-your-own bloom bar, a Maison Lodi boulangerie stand, and a garden bar featuring cocktails inspired by local ingredients—creating a vibrant afternoon of connection, creativity, and local pride.
Plus, VIP tickets gain you access to the American Fare lunch at Americana House, each course crafted by the culinary talent of the tasting experience.
