A Taste of the Florida Keys: Chef's Table Experience
2024-08-25 18:00 - 21:00 | The Forks, 35 Scenic Ridge Rd, Elkins, 26241, United States
We’re taking you on a journey to the Florida Keys—not the sanitized, picture-perfect version you see on postcards, but the real Keys. The one with weathered fishermen, conch fritters that make you weak in the knees, and a salty breeze that makes everything taste just a little bit better.
Chef Stalnaker has put together a seven-course menu that’s not just inspired by the Keys—it’s drenched in them. We’re talking fresh-off-the-boat seafood, citrus that could’ve been plucked from Hemingway’s backyard, and flavors that don’t just whisper—they shout. This isn’t a meal for the faint of heart. It’s for those who know that good food should make you feel something.
The Keys are a place where time slows down, where meals are meant to be savored, not rushed. That’s what this event is all about. We’re bringing the sun-soaked spirit of the islands to West Virginia, with dishes that are as raw and real as the people who live there. Each bite is a taste of the Keys—honest, bold, and just a little bit wild.

Sauerkraut: Digging into Fermentation with KB Behrens
2024-08-26 18:00 - 20:00 | Phil Gainer Community Center, 142 Robert E Lee Ave Ext, Elkins, WV 26241, USA, 149 Robert E Lee Ave Exd, United States
Class Description: We will delve into the art of fermentation, starting with the foundational basics of making traditional sauerkraut. We will also explore some ways to spice it up and try other kraut styles too.
KB Behrens resides in Tucker County, where she enjoys tending her gardens and crafting herbal tonics and ferments to share with her community. She also truly enjoys sharing her love of plants and fermenting with others, especially by taking kids on plant walks.
MORE INFO:
Augusta is presenting a series of food-ways classes in Elkins, WV. The classes will be taught by experienced chefs and home cooks from a variety of cultures represented in Appalachia today. Classes will cover specific dishes such as adobo, Palestinian hand pies and collard greens, as well as addressing topics such as preservation and sustainable harvesting techniques for ramps. Students can expect to come away from each class with hands-on knowledge about how to make a dish and hopefully a deeper understanding of the importance of that dish to the people whose kitchens it sprang from.
This project is made possible by the Claude Worthington Benedum Foundation
What are food-ways?
Food-ways are more than food itself — they are the beliefs and context surrounding food, the person-to-person teaching of its preparation, as well as the community in which the food is enjoyed. The passing down of food traditions from one generation to the next is an integral piece of a community’s identity and culture. We use food to deepen community ties, celebrate important holidays, mark milestones, and enrich our lives. A community’s values are readily communicated in the ways that food is celebrated and shared within it.\nOnly 15 slots available for each class! If your desired class is sold out, please reach out to Emily (emily@augustaartsandculture.org) to be added to the wait-list.
