Energy will abound at Feast of FieldsGenerous, enthusiastic and talented people are working to make the annual Feast of Fields popular. They range from the hardworking organic farmers who grow the food year round, the imaginative chefs who create amazing dishes over a simple camp fire or gas barbecue, the wineries and breweries that continue to innovate with their products, to the many volunteers dedicated to the organic food movement. While intended to be a sumptuous leisurely experience, the underlying theme of the Feast of Fields is the connection between organic food producers and consumers. The 24th annual Feast of Fields, to be held Sept. 8 at Cold Creek Conservation Area on the 11th Concession of King Township, is the signature event of Organic Advocates. It will run from 1 to 5 p.m. Originating in 1989, as a modest walkabout featuring urban cuisine in a rural setting, it has become an eagerly anticipated annual event. Imagine strolling through a sweet-smelling field, sampling dozens of fresh, succulent organic creations, accompanied by local wines and beers, and you will get a taste of Feast of Fields. “We are delighted to be returning to Cold Creek Conservation Area,” declared Chef Daniel Gilbert, founder of the event. “The location was a hit for the last three years. Every year the event gets bigger and bigger. As the organic, local food movement is raising consciousness of the food we eat and drink, more and more people are making the event a staple of their fall outings.” “We are thrilled to partner with Organic Advocates for this great sustainable event and thank them for contributing to the construction of a shaded pavilion at Cold Creek,” commented King Township Mayor Steve Pellegrini. “The Township supports and nurtures the local sustainable food movement through community and tourism festivals and events such as Feast of Fields.” Celebrated chefs participating this year will include Ted Reader, Emerie Brine, Brad Livergant, Wanda Beaver and many more. Tickets may be purchased for $100 online or by calling 905-859-3609. For more information visit www.feastoffields.org |
