"As someone who is always planning events, I love it when I get to just sit back and go from place to place not having to make any decisions. When we arrived at each location on the itinerary, we just needed to share a specific phrase and the fabulous hosts knew just what to do. Are you wondering where I visited?" - The Foodies Group

Quel week-end exceptionnel au Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada! 🏎 Notre burger de bœuf des Cantons & poitrine de "pork belly" sur pain brioche avec sauce secrète et pickels a reçu la médaille d'argent selon The Foodies Group. 😍

Ça boucle la boucle de cet évènement grandiose. Merci à l'équipe du Grand Prix de nous avoir fait confiance et aussi à nos commanditaires BIG BILL et FITCH BAY CAFÉ. De belles entreprises d'ici.

A huge thank you to Canada Beef for granting us this amazing access to so many incredible people that are passionate about ranching and sustainability. We hope you enjoy watching the videos and reading the blogs as much as enjoyed making them!

As we near the end of National Nutrition Month, what better way to wrap it up than by sharing a story of how a Canadian rancher uses upcycled food to feed a delicious protein that is so vital to so many of our diets, Canadian beef.
