Last winter when we were planning events for the year we searched for something different, something new at Westport Rivers. What says “summer in South Coastal New England” more than a traditional clambake? Freshly harvested Atlantic clams and fish, Westport potatoes & onions, and Dartmouth sausages baked over rockweed and stone. Something new for us but old as the glacial soil in which the vineyard is planted.
Come join us under the tent as Westport bake master Jeff LeValley prepares his traditional clambake, from building the fire, to rake out, to baking the seafood under rockweed and canvas.
And to round out the day, we have traditional American folk music performed by Aubrey Atwater and Elwood Donnelley.
