'Foodies' Walk in Centretown
Whalesbone on Kent, where the walk will start
This walk is an annual favourite, back for 2019! We will highlight some of the specialty food stores in our Centretown neighborhood on Gladstone Ave, between Kent & Percy. These stores focus on selling local, organic, and sustainable food. We love good food and we want to share our favorite stores in the neighborhood with you. Some details on the shops we will visit are given below.
Sign-up required!
