Missed Eat Alberta Conference? Read this!
Monday, May 2, 2011 CityandDale This past weekend, a hands-on food conference called Eat Alberta: A Celebration of Our Local Food Heroes, quietly took place in the basement of Enterprise Square.
Given its roaring success, next year’s Eat Alberta won’t happen so quietly. Already, the attendees are loudly begging for more demonstration workshops, tasting sessions and presentations. The 2012 Eat Alberta Conference will sell out quickly to local foodies wanting to connect with leaders in the Edmonton food community – farmers, chefs, and local food advocates.
Can’t wait until next year? We’ve got you covered with our little guide below.
