Over the past decade, the food and wine scene in Jackson Hole has grown substantially, much to the happiness of local and visiting foodies alike. This summer, the newest addition to the culinary schedule is the Jackson Hole Food & Wine Festival.
 Megan Gallagher and Katrina Ryan have launched this new festival and will be unveiling special food and wine events throughout the year. Megan, who was one of the driving forces behind the Jackson Hole Wine Auction and Taste of Jackson Hole, along with Katrina, owner of Westside Wine & Spirits, have teamed up with a fabulous group of partners and advisors to form this new non-profit.
Jackson Hole Food and Wine events will support different local organizations each year. In 2017, the Central Wyoming College Culinary and Hospitality program and Hole Food Rescue will be the beneficiaries.
Megan and Katrina will carry on the previous Jackson Hole Wine Auction events including Taste of Jackson Hole and specialty dinners. They kick off their first events June 22-24. Throughout the year, they will also host pop-up dinners, educational events, demonstrations and more.
In June, chefs Chris Shepherd of Underbelly and One Fifth Steak in Houston and Ryan Prewitt of Peche in New Orleans, along with honored guest Pierre-Antoine Rovani, President of Remoissenet Pere et Fils will headline their events which include:
June 22 - Taste of Jackson Hole, presented by Jackson Hole Mountain Resort
