Spring is finally on its way here in Prince Edward Island. Before we know it, the kids will be home from school for those long hazy summer days. And what are you going to feed them?

Anyone who enjoys sampling Prince Edward Island’s multitude of culinary offerings is well aware that we have easy access to the best seafood in the world. But what many people don’t realize is that our shellfish is still harvested during the winter months through the ice so that we may all have access to fresh seafood year-round.

Summary: Food Island Partnership has organized an all day information session explaining the new Safe Food for Canadians Act. The session is broken into two parts and will be held on December 17 from 9:30am–4pm in the Dunes Room of the Holman Grand in Charlottetown.

Summary: The three-week Best of Sea promotion is happening now through November 30. During this time, twelve executive chefs in Prince Edward Island will compete to have their innovative seafood dishes named the best in PEI.

The 4th annual PEI Porktoberfest returns October 1st-to-31st, and this year bacon dreams do come true with Ultimate Bacon Sandwiches.

Around here, we celebrate local flavours on a daily basis, but what a treat it was to be in a room with more than 150 others with vested interest in the food sector of Prince Edward Island.
