Join us for a celebration of Food and Farm Writing with 30 Vendors and our famous $10 Market Supper. We will celebrate with a panel on food blogging with the Halifax Food Bloggers, a talk on Cookbook writing with Wendy McCallum and our Dirty Word Open Mic - where weeding & writing grows prose! being MC’d by Mike and Donna. There will also be a Local Book Fair and a Storytelling Tent for the kids who will have a chance to make there own books. This is being done as a partnership between the Box of Delights Bookstore and the Wolfville Farmers’ Market.
On the Speakers Stage:
Wendy McCallum (5pm-5:20pm): is a food coach and educator who followed her passion for real food by leaving her career as a lawyer and returning to college to learn more about nutrition and food. She now operates Simple Balance Consulting, through which she helps her clients reach their wellness & nutrition goals, in part by supporting them in the move from processed food to healthier, real food alternatives. Her cookbook, Real Food for Real Families, features the most popular "kid-tested", simple recipes her clients love and tips for how to introduce a family to new approaches to food. Wendy also blogs at www.simple-balance.ca.
Food Bloggers Panel (5:20pm-6:00pm): The Halifax Food Bloggers brings together the food blogging community of Halifax, NS. Twenty-eight strong, they showcase varied talents and passions. Kathy Jollimore & Kelly Neil’s talk on food blogging includes tips for food styling and photography. Maybe a Valley Food Bloggers could be in the works?
Dirty Word Open Mic - where weeding & writing grows prose! (6:00pm-7pm): All are welcome to come listen or share a poem or story about Food (pickles, quiche, or steaming mint tea for example); Farming (dairy air, Old MacDonald, sheep shearing etc); or Nature (Robert Frost poetry, breastfeeding, birch bark earrings, gardening, bugs, dirt... the list goes on & on).
