Chicory Week

Chicory Week is a movement and a state of mind, but it is also a moment in time, every year in mid October, when we shine a spotlight on Pacific Northwest radicchio. Here are the events we have planned in 2026:

Tuesday, September 29: Radicchio Book Release in Portland at Nostrana

Thursday, October 1: Radicchio Book Party in Seattle at Persephone

Thursday, October 15: Radicchio Book Talk in Seattle at Book Larder

Sunday, October 18: Rad Pizza Party in Seattle at Tivoli

Monday, October 19: Salon del Radicchio in Seattle at RailSpur

October 19 - 24, CHICORY WEEK in Seattle and Portland

Saturday, October 24: Sagra del Radicchio e Fagioli in Portland

Through collaborations with chefs and restaurants, we bring these vibrant, often underappreciated crops to the public—creating meaningful connections between farmers, kitchens, and eaters.

Chicory Week was founded by the Culinary Breeding Network in partnership with Local Roots Farm, Tom Douglas Restaurant Group, London Plane, and Uprising Seeds.
