Everyone is encouraged to join the Eat Atlantic Challenge taken place on September 4th, 2009. It is very important in todays society to eat local and support the local businesses! The politicans and the Atlantic food advocates have sent out a challenge to the 4 Maritime Provinces to see who can get the most pledges to eat ONLY Atlantic food on September 4th. The province with the most pledges per capita will win the challenge; So get your pledge in!! This is an excellent way to show people that our Atlantic provinces have so many food choices which are local and delicious. The end result of this will not be about which province "wins" or "loses" but will be about showing people that it is more beneficial and just as delicious to buy their food locally! If you would like to be a pledge or for more information go to http://www.eatatlantic.ca/.
We're excited the Atlantic provinces have teamed together to encourage people to eat Atlantic on September 4th and to join great producers like Gaspereau Vineyards to bring quality Atlantic food to both residents and visitors to Nova Scotia. As you say, it is not only beneficial to our economy, communities and environment, but tastes great. Thanks for your ongoing efforts to get the word out.
