Taste Tradition,

About the event

Passionate about the land and its bounty, our founding fathers may well have been our nation’s first foodies. Thomas Jefferson cultivated more than three hundred varieties of vegetables. George Washington distilled his own rye whiskey. As chefs and diners alike return to the land with equal enthusiasm, Colonial Williamsburg is pleased to announce the Second Annual Taste Tradition Weekend, August 29-31, right here in beautiful Williamsburg, Virginia.

You’re invited to be a sponsor of this exciting food and spirits weekend of events that will be sure to delight your palate and make for an unforgettable culinary adventure. We are again pleased to partner with the award-winning national magazine Garden & Gun that covers the best of the South. There are many benefits of sponsorship to include the advertising of your logo in Garden & Gun magazine as well as on our website. Sponsors will be printed in the Taste Tradition summary edition of Garden and Gun due out in late November. Our sponsorship program affords you the opportunity to recognize key professionals within your organization with event passes to attend, as well as position your organization with a national audience of more than one million passionate and engaged readers.

Our celebration starts Friday evening with “Bushels & Barrels” a tasting in Colonial Williamsburg’s Revolutionary City. Mingle with our Historic Trades people and shopkeepers who bring the restored 18th century town to life and meet our 21st century chefs who will explore contemporary cuisine inspired by an eighteenth-century ethos. This exclusive weekend also features specialty wine dinners, wine and beer seminars, an exclusive Tasting Room, a wine warehouse offering wines featured throughout the weekend and so much more! It all takes place in Colonial Williamsburg at the Williamsburg Lodge. Enjoy a relaxing hotel escape in the heart of the Revolutionary City. Just steps from the action, the inviting lodge boasts a world-class restaurant and convenient access to our spa and golf recreation amenities.

You may participate in any one of our three levels of sponsorship support: Visionaries, Patrons or Associates. (Please note logo placement in Garden & Gun magazine is reserved for Visionaries sponsors.) Please see attached outline of event and benefits of being a sponsor.

We hope you’ll partner with us for this culinary tradition and become an important part of this elite group of food and spirits enthusiasts!
