The Rural Roots Farmer Showcase Committee has been hard at work organizing a one-of-a-kind event that highlights local food, the farmers who produce it, and local music as well. On August 14, 2021, George Pegg Garden will be alive with activity offering visitors a unique experience in a charming location.
Planned to coincide with Alberta Open Farm Days, this year’s outdoor event pairs a daytime vendor market with an evening picnic-style meal and concert. Pegg Garden is just north of Glenevis, in Lac Ste. Anne County.
“This year we wanted to offer something different than we had in our first couple of years. While connecting consumers with local producers is always our main goal, we also wanted to pair it with uplifting local entertainment for a truly indulgent culinary experience.” Bobby Yeoman, Rural Roots Farmer Showcase committee.
