Local Food Week 2023

Local Food Week runs from June 5^th to June 11^th and is an opportunity to celebrate all the good things  grown, harvested and produced in Ontario.

Farmers, food processors, distributors, retailers, restaurants, and consumers are an integral part of our local food system. When we choose to purchase what is grown and made right here at home, we are choosing Ontario.

Increasing the consumption and production of local food is a key goal of our Grow Ontario Strategy, and Local Food Week is a time to recognize all the hardworking local food businesses and organizations who support that goal.  

Ontario’s agri-food sector contributes $47.6 billion in GDP to our provincial economy and sustains over 750,000 jobs provincewide.
