Chicory Week

2026 events were a huge success. Thank you to everyone who supported our work in Portland, Seattle, and the surrounding areas. Stay tuned for 2027! Want to have Chicory Week all year long? Check out the book Radicchio: A Celebration of the Beloved Italian Vegetable.

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.

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.
