The East End Food And Drink Scene Converging In Calverton

North Meets South, a one-of-a-kind Farms, Food, & Drink Festival, is making its debut this June.

Presented by North Fork Event Company, Inc., on Saturday, June 8 and Sunday, June 9 a converging of the local farm-to-table movement will highlight “everything good the North and South Forks have to offer” at Long Island Sports Park in Calverton.

“This foodie event is unlike any other event that will be happening this year on Long Island,” Vanessa Rebentisch and Monique Cutone, North Meets South founders, shared. “Our goal is to get as many farmers at the event as possible to raise awareness to the community about the farm-to-table movement and make the local consumer get a better understanding of where & who we get our food from.”

The bi-annual Festival will boast everything from provisions from local farms to bites from local eateries to sips from local breweries, vineyards, and cider houses to classically trained chefs to food eating contests to children and teen activities to live entertainment and much more.

For those with an endless appetite, there will be four eating contests.

“North Meets South – Farms, Food, & Drink Festival has many amazing elements to it, but two special things that are happening in regards to food are our BEST SHUCKER contest and the DOUGHnut eating contest,” the duo noted.

The ‘You Drive Me Glazy DOUGHnut Eating Contest’ will take place on both days at 3 p.m.

“With June 7, 2019 being National Donut Eating Day, we thought it to be fitting that we would have a DOUGHnut eating contest, sponsored by North Fork Doughnut Company in Mattituck. Contestants will be provided plain glazed doughnuts to eat and the winner will be decided by who finishes their allotted donuts first,” Rebentisch and Cutone said.

The ‘Best Shucker Oyster Eating Contest’ will take place a little later, at 5 p.m. on both days. “This BEST SHUCKER contest will be an Oyster Eater Competition for the community,” they added. “The person who eats and shucks thirty oysters in the shortest period of time wins. Two Oyster Farms will be donating their Oysters (Bantam Creek Oyster Company & Yennicott Oysters) and the winner will receive acknowledgement on our website, festival t-shirt, and an additional to-be-determined prize.”

The Corn Hole Tournament will kick-off the competitive happenings at 12 p.m. on both days.

“Patrons will be able to pre-sign up through website, mail, or upon arrival at the door for both contests. There will be an entry fee for contests,” Rebentisch and Cutone explained.

Live music will feature Jen Kane, Butterfly Cody Experience, and Who Are Those Guys on Saturday, June 8 and Brady Rymer, Southbound, and Paris Ray on Sunday, June 9.

Additionally, there will be interactive games for children such as, potato sack races, parachute games, tug-of-war and more. Little ones can also enjoy inflatable houses, games, and slides, petting zoo, pony rides and more.

The Evelyn Alexander Wildlife Rescue will present a ‘Birds of Prey’ show on Saturday at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday at 12:30 p.m., while Yarn & Farm will be showcase an exciting variety of exotic animals for the public to meet with on both days.

The East End Arts Council will takeover the main building, highlighting a gorgeous selection of art created by community members.

North Meets South participants will include Founders Oyster Farm, Southold Bay Oysters, Peconic Pearls, Yennicott Oysters, Bantam Creek Oyster Company, Green Hill Kitchen, Mattitaco, East on Main, North Fork Doughnut Company, Long Island Famous Foods, Sail Away Coffee, North Fork Coffee Roasters, Dougs Lemonade, Grace and Grit, Lucharitos, Meats Meat, Kona Ice of Long Island, Pipini Breads, Chenza’s, Blue Duck Bakery, The Perfect Pickle, Greenport Jerky Company, Bostwicks Chowder House, Johns Drive-In, Green Street Food Truck, Knot of This World Pretzels, Long Island Famous Foods, King Andrew Cheese, Cupcakes and Everything Chocolate, Coastal Kraft Kombucha, Borghese Winery, Farrm Wine, Westhampton Beach Brewery, Long Ireland Brewery, Old Tymer Moonshine, Tilth & Smoke Farm, Green Boss Farm, Malik Farms, Holy Schmitts, Catapano, Zilnicki Farms, 1760 Homestead Farm, and more.

North Meets South will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on both days.

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
