Food & Drink❯Cider

Join us on Sunday afternoon, November 1 at the Ale & Cider House in West Linn, home of the confluence of the Willamette and Tualatin Rivers, for a kickoff to the 2026 Give!Guide campaign, supporting Tualatin Riverkeepers and Willamette Riverkeeper.

The Riverkeepers work tirelessly to protect our respective watersheds, and we increasingly team up to address some of our state's most pressing threats to water, such as the proliferation of data centers and PFAS, impacts from a changing climate, and continued deforestation.

These are pressing issues, but we accomplish our work by caring for the land, recreating on our beautiful rivers, and celebrating the only two National Water Trails in Oregon! So drop in on November 1 at any point between 2:30 and 5:00, grab a pint and a bite, and chat with WRK and TRK about our work in an informal setting. You'll also have the opportunity to help us kick off our Give!Guide campaigns with a bang, with fun incentives from partners such as Brew Dr. Kombucha!

Get ready for the 92nd Verboort Sausage and Kraut Festival, a one-day celebration in Verboort, Oregon.

Don't miss the one-of-a-kind Bazaar, filled with vintage jewelry, plants, handmade holiday décor, potholders and quilts, and homemade baked goods and jams. There's fun for the whole family, including kids' activities, family bingo, festival merchandise, and plenty of photo opportunities. Guests 21 and older can relax in the beer garden with beer, wine, cider, sausage and kraut, and college football on the big screens.

Come celebrate the community spirit of nearly 850 volunteers and discover why the Verboort Sausage and Kraut Festival is always worth marking on your calendar—the first Saturday in November.

Join Urban Art Network for a special holiday edition of First Thursday inside Portland’s iconic McMenamins Crystal Ballroom! For two festive nights, we’re bringing together an incredible lineup of local artists, makers, and small businesses for a one-of-a-kind indoor holiday market.

Shop handmade goods and unique gifts, grab a cocktail, and spend the evening supporting Portland’s creative community, all while exploring one of the city’s most iconic venues.

Whether you’re getting a head start on holiday shopping, looking for something uniquely Portland, or just want a fun night out, Crafts & Cocktails is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season!

As autumn settles more deeply into the land, join a cozy evening at ChamBurn Farm in Oregon City, just 20 minutes south of Portland. Begin with a short tour of the beautifully designed farm, then warm up with hot cider and a seasonal snack provided by chef Jim of ChamBurn Farm.

Under a large covered outdoor patio complete with a fire burning in the fireplace, Angela of Breathe Yoga will open the evening's practice with a grounding, inviting you to settle into your body, connect with the earth beneath you, and arrive fully in the moment. Then, Gabrielle of Hearthsounds Sound Healing will guide you into a 75-minute immersive sound bath. Singing bowls, gong, chimes, and other instruments will surround you in layers of sound and vibration, blending with the natural sounds of the farm: the crackle of the fire, the rustling of the evening air, and the occasional call of an animal.

November invites one to slow down. The harvest has been gathered, the landscape is changing, and nature is gradually becoming quieter. This evening is an opportunity to follow that rhythm, settle into stillness, and simply receive.

Ridgefield Main Street presents Sips of the Season, a downtown wine, cider, beer and spirits walk, from 3-7 p.m. Nov. 7. Guests can enjoy seasonal tastings at participating downtown Ridgefield businesses. Two ticket packages are available: five tastings for $25 or ten tastings for $45.

Proceeds support programs and projects that strengthen downtown Ridgefield. Buy tickets at eventbrite.com.

We are excited to host Acre Knife, a small team of bladesmiths crafting kitchen and outdoor knives in the St. Johns neighborhood!

They will demonstrate their new line of everyday hand-finished culinary knives and let shoppers try them for themselves.

For years, a group of accomplished bladesmiths had devoted themselves to making exceptional knives. They had apprenticed, studied traditional techniques, experimented with materials, and developed their own methods. But they also knew how difficult it could be to build a life around that kind of work.

In 2023, Dane Tomseth set out to change that by creating a place where skilled makers could do serious work, earn a living, and keep getting better. That place became Acre Forge, a working production facility in North Portland’s St. Johns neighborhood where experienced makers share equipment, techniques, ideas, and a daily practice.

Their collective experience spans traditional Japanese techniques, modern design, metallurgy, ergonomics, culinary experience, woodworking, and machining. That shared foundation and the different paths that brought them to it is what shapes Acre’s knife lines: Macrum and Signature.

Get all your gluten-free needs met at the Gluten Free Maker Market. Multiple Vendors will fill out the Portland Schilling Cider House every first Saturday from 1:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m. Enjoy a cider, a gluten-free kitchen, and all of the vendors' wares.

Space is limited; every participant must be signed up in advance to reserve a spot.

Join us at the Creative Learning Room to learn a new skill, and meet friendly people. The program will focus exclusively on an introduction to 3D printing with our Prusa printers. As a result, other equipment will not be available for public use during this time.

Explore science, technology, engineering, and math through hands-on activities. From building and designing to experimenting and exploring—there’s something for every curious mind.

For ages 5–12
