2009 Food and Wine Festivals on Cape Cod
Winters are long on Cape Cod. Not necessarily cold, but often gray and lacking the colors that other seasons bring. Hence, one of our favorite winter pastimes is anticipating the arrival of spring, summer, and fall with their inherent seasonal offerings and requisite celebrations. Cape Cod is rife with special events that highlight our symbiotic relationship with the fruits of land and sea.
The High Pointe Inn is an avid supporter of many of the events. In fact, Rich is a major contributor to the Wellfleet OysterFest, making his annual sacrifice of consuming 4-5 dozen oysters single-handedly. We are delighted to share with you a few of our favorite events, as well as a few new ones that aim to showcase the region’s culinary delights and prolific arts community. Be sure to make your reservations at the High Pointe Inn early, as we sellout quickly for most of these events.
