Ways To Join In Local Food Week Celebrations

Farm & Food Care Ontario describes Local Food Week as a chance to put a spotlight on the wide variety of local foods and beverages available in the province year-round.

This year, Local Food Week runs from June 1st to the 7th.

Farm & Food Care has some suggestions for ways people can join the Local Food Week celebrations.

That includes a Twitter party for farmers and foodies at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3rd.

If you're on Social Media - watch for the hash-tag loveONTfood. (#loveONTfood)

Non-farmers can take a virtual farm tour to find out how your food is produced by visiting the website - www.farmfoodcare.org.

There are also some resources and ideas on how to join in on the Local Food celebrations on the website - www.loveontfood.ca.

Farm & Food Care Ontario is a coalition of farmers, agriculture and food partners working together to ensure public trust and confidence in food and farming.
