It is that time of year again when we clean up, put on the "good" plaid shirts and go to the Brickwork's Picnic.This a harvest celebration where local growers, ranchers, fishers and artisans are praised for their hard work. This year our farm will be featuring our own pulled heritage chicken served on a maple leaf (how Canadian, I know...). Mark has been dreaming up this one for awhile and as usual it will taste splendid!

This is a great day out in the big smoke (a.k.a.Toronto), were we meet and greet other foodies, farmers and chefs while literally eating our faces off (note to self: bring track pants for car ride home). I look forward to this picnic all year and this year it should be even better, Harvest Kitchen Sisters will be there in full swing promoting the blog, all the while stuffing our mouths. If you are in the Toronto area on Sunday and are looking for a great day full of food and festivities, this a great event! For those of you who are not, look for the after post of our take on the day!

Tickets are still available! For more information click here and/or here.

  3. Oh linds, you gotta come. Bike meeting?? I don't think E realizes the calibre of food we're talking about here.

    Well, if you really can't come, I'll eat for you then.

  4. If I can stay awake after working Nuit Blanche all night, I will be there- I made it last year and all the yummy food was the perfect antidote to having no sleep. I avoid the booze however- don't want to fall asleep on the subway home.

  5. Hey Callie,

    If you do it make it to the picnic, make sure to come by and sample our goods at the Grassroot Organics table. We are working with the Sausage Partners of Leslieville so it should be a pretty delicious bite.

    We would love to meet one of our blog friends!

    Have fun at nuit blanche!
