Canada’s National Organic Week Celebrates Sustainable Food Across the Country

This September 19-27th Canadians will celebrate one of the largest organic events in the country. It involves schools, retailers, chefs, organic farmers, and activists from all over Canada and around the world.
With recipe contests, novel new agricultural practices on display, and alternative options for sustainable living showcased, thousands of people will celebrate both transparency and sustainability in their food supply.
From organic wines and beers being presented by chefs to representatives from organic farms sharing some of their growing successes, the event will bring organic food to both school-aged children, the elderly, and everyone in between.
Want to learn how to grow in a cold frame? What about learning to make your own pickles? Do you want to start a small-scale organic farm? How about getting your school to transition to an all organic menu? Or perhaps, host an organic barbecue for your health-minded friends to enjoy some new super-food recipes?
You can schedule all this and more by visiting the website which helps to connect organizers with participants in the massive event.
Our neighbors to the north are celebrating organic food, and so is the rest of the world as the demand for organic keeps growing. Sorry Monsanto! Organic food and food sustainability is booming, and there isn’t too much that can be done about that.
