Join us for an immersive truffle hunt at Virginia Truffles, where you’ll follow our skilled truffle dog as they track the elusive scent of black Périgord truffles beneath the oak trees. Guests will have the chance to unearth these hidden treasures and capture memorable photos with our four-legged team members.
Our expert guides will introduce you to the art of hunting with a partner dog, digging, and assessing truffle ripeness. This unique adventure begins at 2:00 PM with a warm welcome around the bonfire, where you’ll enjoy a seasonal beverage and learn about the fascinating world of truffles, including an introduction to the farm and our skilled truffle dogs. Then, the hunt is on!
After the hunt, return to the bonfire for a delightful tasting experience featuring truffle hors d’oeuvres paired with a celebratory sparkling beverage. The flavors highlight the rich and earthy essence of the truffle. Our team will also share culinary techniques to help you maximize the flavor of truffles in your own kitchen, with tips on preparation, pairing, and preservation.
Your experience continues with a behind-the-scenes tour of our lab, where we’ll demonstrate the process of grading, cleaning, and storing fresh truffles. Fresh truffles found during the hunt will be available for purchase at the end of the event.
