Join us for Tastes of the Valley event this Saturday, July 25th, 8:30am-1pm when 17 chefs will offer 33 unique tastes.  This is a culinary celebration of fresh local food where chefs from local restaurants join regular Market vendors and use Valley-farmed ingredients to make $3 taste concoctions to tantalize your taste buds.

Restaurants that focus on using fresh, local ingredients on their menus have been invited to join the regular Saturday vendors at the Market for this special event. The menu is curated by Market staff, ensuring that each dish uses ingredients sourced from farms and producers in the Annapolis Valley.


$3 Taste Tickets are available for purchase at two Ticket Booth locations, where menus, event maps and ballots can also be picked up. Those who vote for their favourite chef by submitting a ballot can win $100 towards a meal from their favourite chef.


The chefs have an opportunity to win one of two awards: The People’s Pick and the The Panel’s Pick for both a sweet and a savoury taste. Vote for your favourite and the chef that wins the most votes is the People’s Pick. A panel of judges (Darrin Harvey, 89.3 K-Rock On-Air Personality; Lia Rinaldo, Managing Director of Devour! The Food Film Fest and Sylvia Ernst, Recipe Contest Coordinator for Saltscapes)

will vote for the Panel’s Pick. Both awards will be given out a 12:30 pm.  As well as the featured chefs, there will be live music and the event will occur in the midst of our weekly market which is home to 70 vendors.
