It's time to dust off your dancing shoes (and maybe some gardening gloves) because the Yuba Foothills Food & Water Festival is back for its second round – and it's gonna be even tastier than last year! Mark your calendars, because the heart of the Yuba Foothills is about to explode with deliciousness.

But wait, there's more! Day 2 takes things to the next level with workshops and tours at YES Charter Academy. Dive into the world of soil & health, the Yuba Watershed, fruit tree growing, cheese making, beekeeping and Jadam composting.

This festival is all about celebrating the incredible community we have here in the Yuba Foothills. It's a chance to connect with your neighbors, discover hidden gems, and, of course, stuff your face with delicious, locally-sourced food and drinks.
