Tahoe Chamber cancels 2023 Sample the Sierra

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The Tahoe Chamber has announced they are canceling this year's farm-to-fork festival Sample the Sierra in South Lake Tahoe. They cited the extremely wet conditions that continue from the record-breaking winter storms.

Scheduled for June, the popular Sample the Sierra brings together local chefs and restaurants with neighboring growers and producers to turn out scrumptious samples craftily paired with the appropriate wine, brew, or spirits. The festival marketplace includes locally made goods such as jam, soap, honey, and olive oil along with specialty products created in South Lake Tahoe, such as fine art, jewelry, and crafts.

“We were considering outdoor venues that are currently carrying too much snow to provide a safe and enjoyable event by early June,” said Tahoe Chamber Chief Executive Officer, Mike Glover. “It was a tough decision to postpone the event, but we want to make sure that vendors and guests are provided the best experience we can offer.”

The Chamber sid Sample the Sierra will return in 2024 with good times and even better food. Tahoe Chamber will provide more information when it becomes available.
