Sunday, August 24, 2008
Halifax, Truro, Wolfville, Cape Breton, South Shore, Northumberland Shore and Annapolis-Digby Counties.
> Further details on picnic location coming soon.
The Select Nova Scotia Incredible Picnic is a celebration of local food and community in Nova Scotia. Open-air banquets will be held on Sunday August 24, 2008 at eight picnic sites across the province.
At the picnic events producers and chefs will showcase local foods – the fruits, vegetables, seafood, meats, cheeses, breads, beverages and more that are available in your backyard and can reduce your environmental impact.
All Nova Scotians are invited to bring their picnic basket filled with local food or to create a picnic lunch from farmer and food vendors at the events. Support local producers by bringing your family and enjoying the products of Nova Scotia's regions which have been harvested at the peak of perfection - ripe, flavourful and delicious.
Visit www.selectnovascotia.ca for more details.
