1909 Culinary Academy
Ayr, Ontario
1909 is a culinary academy specializing in chef training, community classes, local food pantry, CSA boxes and farm to table dining – but more importantly, it’s Chef Zehr’s dream business. They opened a mere month before the province was thrown into chaos, but have managed to pivot quickly to serve their community. Later this summer, they plan to have outdoor dining and pizza oven in full swing!
Greener Pastures Eco Farm/ Blue Cow Delivery
Woodstock, Ontario
