   Smoke & Pickles is one of the Farm Coast's most beloved catering companies, and they hail from right here in Westport. Renowned for their creative, fresh, and locally sourced cuisine, Smoke & Pickles delights appetites while celebrating the bounty of our local seas, farmlands, pastures, and forests. If you've never tasted their amazing food, or experienced the aromas of caramelized pork and oak smoke wafting from their portable smokers- this will be a great opportunity for you! Plates will be sold at very reasonable prices.

BYOB, coffee and sweets are available at Partners Village store
