If you’re a food-lover, you might want to score some tickets to the 19th annual Feast of Fields this week before they’re all gone. On September 8th, Farm Folk City Folk will present their super delicious annual fundraising event out at Krause Berry Farms. ”Celebrate the best in sustainable, local food and satisfy your taste buds at this gourmet wandering harvest festival. Farmers, fishers, brewers, ranchers and chefs from across BC will be presenting their culinary creations, and now is your chance to sample them all.” It’s always seriously good times, plus the money raised goes to Farm Folk City Folk and their continued efforts to connect local farmers and food producers with local chefs – good for everyone! Added bonus: there will be a shuttle bus available from Vancouver ($15) so you don’t have to drive or think, just eat and drink. This event always sells out, so don’t get stuck without tickets. We recently took a trip out to the farm to check things out and even though it was raining the spread was pretty awesome. We’ll be seeing you there as always, rain or shine.

    Sun, September 8 | 1-5pm | Krause Berry Farms & Estate Winery, Langley | $95 | DETAILS
