“MoCo Made” Food Event Set for Dawson’s Market in Rockville

Montgomery-made food and beverages will be on the menu at an event starting at 4 p.m. at Dawson’s Market in Rockville.

The “MoCo Made” event coincides with the release of the second annual Montgomery County Food and Beverage Guide. Producers in the guide will be offering tastes and items for sale. From dips and dressings to beer, bourbon and fruits and vegetables, the 20-page publication showcases the food and beverages produced on farms and in commercial kitchens in Montgomery County, or by businesses headquartered here.

More than 15 Montgomery County producers will participate in Meet the Locals, including Caulfield Provision Co., Chouquette Chocolates, Denizens Brewing Co., Dress It Up Dressing, Favor Ceylon Tea, MeatCrafters Inc., Moorenko’s Ice Cream, Seedy Nutty Co., Stone Soup Catering, Sunflower Bakery, Swiss Pastries Inc., The Red Bandana Bakery, True Respite Brewing Co., Tsiona Foods and Waredaca Brewing Co.

Dawson’s, at 225 N. Washington St., stocks products from local farms and food and beverage companies.

The “MoCo Made” brand and logo were created in partnership with the Montgomery County Food Council and the Montgomery County Economic Development Corp.

The council is an independent nonprofit organization that connects businesses, nonprofits, government agencies and concerned residents to help create a sustainable local food system. The MCEDC is a public-private entity that guides the county’s economic development.
