Food Day set to be celebrated across Canada

Farmers and ranchers across the country will be celebrated this weekend.

Sunday has been declared Food Day Canada where those who plant, harvest, and make our meals will be recognized.

This is the 20th edition of the day, marking one of the largest and longest-running celebrations of those who work in the food industry.

“Food Day Canada serves as a link that connects us all through the joy of food,” said David Marit, Saskatchewan’s Agriculture Minister. “We extend our recognition to all the hardworking and dedicated individuals who play a vital role in feeding the world. I encourage everyone to take a moment to share their personal food experiences and celebrate Canadian food.”

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
