Taste Real invites the community to join the 3rd Annual Spring Wellington Rural Romp on May 25.
The themes this year are “Gardener’s Delight” and “Tastes of Spring.” Over a dozen farms, markets, gardens, and restaurants in Mapleton, Minto, and Wellington North will open their doors to the public for self-guided tours.
Participants will spend a day in the countryside meeting local farmers and enjoying real taste. The Spring Wellington Rural Romp offers activities for the whole family, including the opportunity to frolic with baby animals, learn more about Community Shared Agriculture, buy heirloom tomato seedlings, or wander through unique rural gardens. Participants may also learn how to grow produce, and sample food from local chefs and producers.
Spring Wellington Rural Romp runs from 10am to 4pm. For farm locations, download the map at http://www.tastereal.ca. Participants are encouraged to share photos and videos from the Spring Romp on the Taste Real Facebook page, www.facebook.com/tastereal. Prizes will be awarded for the best photo in three categories: Farmscapes, Family Fun, and Food.
