Zaube Wild Food Festival will take place on 9th July, 12:00-18:00 at Zaube, Cēsis district.

Entrance to the festival is free of charge and here will be lots of activities for adults and children alike.

Various wild meat meals will be offered by the local "Zaube" hunters' club including hunters’ soup, wild boar stew, deer pancakes, grilled red deer and others. Several caterers will prepare special wild food dishes, including vegetarian and vegan wild food options. For example, try forest mushrooms, tree-fungus, berries and wood sorrel.
