Slow Food Calgary's 9th Annual Feast of Fields
Sep 12, 2010
at Rouge Restaurant, 1240 - 8th Ave. SE, in the garden. Rain or shine.

Slow Food Calgary's 9th Annual Feast of Fields

June 15, 2010 (Calgary) – Join Slow Food Calgary for a food-fuelled afternoon in the garden. Enjoy plenty of local fare to eat and drink, meet the people who grow your food and the chefs who create delicious dishes with our wonderful Alberta harvest. Last year we debuted our “The Alberta Snail Trail”, our guide to local products and this year we’ve expanded it to include 78 local food producers who meet our good, clean and fair criteria.  The 2010 edition of the Alberta Snail Trail will be released at this year’s Feast of Fields. Come and connect with all things local. The educational component for Feast # 9 will feature the farming initiative known as CSA or Community Supported Agriculture – farmers sell shares of crops directly to consumers and in doing so share the rewards and risks of farming. Slow Food Calgary’s 9th Annual Feast of Fields Sunday, September 12, 2010: 1 – 4 pm Rouge Restaurant, 1240 – 8 Ave SE, in the garden. Rain or Shine. Members: Adults $60; Youth 8 – 18 $15; Family of 4 $135; Kids under 8 free Not yet members: Adults $75; Youth 8 – 18 $30; Family of 4 $160 Tickets are available in person or by phone at The Cookbook Co.

Late Summer Canning
There are moments that are magic, and events that are alchemy. You never know when they will arrive, or with whom. All you can do is raise your face to the sky and say thank-you.

Canning with Penny and Tony Marshall was one of those moments. Learn more »
