In July, Americans celebrate more than their independence from Great Britain. Evidently, the country appreciates sustenance as much as it does sovereignty. Major food festivals are planned for 2025, including Windy City Smokeout, July 10-13, in Chicago; Ballard SeafoodFest, July 11-13, in Ballard, Washington; and Taste! Central Florida, July 12, in Orlando. Be sure to check event websites for the latest information on these and other summertime culinary gatherings.
