In addition to the chef challenge we will have local entertainment, youth activities, food demo’s, organic produce, arts and crafts, taste education tables and local chefs giving away their trade secrets and recipes.

It’s a community of like-minded individuals, farmers, chefs, restaurateurs, food producers, educators and foodies that have joined together to help build a stronger food system. This in turn enhances food security for our Island, supports communities, and cares for the environment in which we live.

Support your local farmers and producers!
