The Venue: A Home of Togetherness and Roots
The Foggy Longbritches Folk Festival finds its home at the Sparacia Witherell Family Winery and Vineyards, a place rich in family history and tradition. Born from the dreams of a tight-knit Italian family from Brooklyn, this gorgeous venue is a symbol of togetherness and deep-rooted connections. After years of Sundays spent in each other’s company, the family planted their first vines on Easter Sunday in 2016, marking the beginning of a new tradition that would grow as surely as the grapes on their vines.
Today, the vineyard stands as a lush backdrop for the festival, symbolizing the growth and passion that also thrive in music. Every song that resonates through the vineyard feels like it’s part of a larger family story, one that every festival-goer becomes a part of. The venue adds a sense of home and warmth to the festival, making it an even more unforgettable experience.
