There has been no shortage of events going during the Saturday Minto Farmers Market in Palmerston and come August, they’ll be celebrating Food Day Canada.
August 3rd marks the yearly tradition to celebrate local grown foods across the country and to celebrate, the Farmers Market is curating a special meal box to enjoy local and fresh ingredients you can find at the Minto Farmers Market.
The box which can feed four has pre orders open until July 24th for $30.
Marketing & Community Development Coordinator for the Town of Minto, Erin Raftis says these meal boxes will be quite hearty of local goods.
“It’s going to be a recipe for a meat and vegetable stew, there will be a dessert but that’s a secret. It’s all Minto Farmers Market vendors so very local and Canadian food.” said Raftis.
Wellington County Taste Real and Farmers Market is also encouraging residents to take the pledge to cook, shop and dine Canadian for a chance to win three local cookbooks and Farmers Market Bucks valued at $140 each.
