Northern Nosh! VT’s Jewish Food Festival

About this event

JOIN US FOR VERMONT’S LARGEST CELEBRATION OF JEWISH FOOD, CULTURE, AND COMMUNITY!

Hosted by Ohavi Zedek in partnership with Jewish Communities of Vermont (JCVT) and Jewish organizations from across the state, the Northern Nosh brings hundreds of people together for an afternoon of food, music, culture and community.

Come savor the flavors of Jewish food, from crispy latkes, savory knishes, matzo ball soup, and fresh falafel to sweet treats like babka, rugelach, and freshly baked challah. Enjoy these beloved Jewish favorites and more while taking in lively music, family entertainment, and the warmth of Jewish hospitality.

Whether you’re Jewish, part of an interfaith family, new to Vermont, or simply curious about Jewish culture and its delicious culinary traditions, everyone is welcome to come hungry and leave happy!
