Our largest, and one of the best good food events of the summer, join us in celebrating two years of Food Forward and all that we've accomplished together. Whether you're a Food Forward regular, or it's your first event, come learn more and participate in Toronto's incredible food movement... network with movers and shakers in good food policy, business, and community.

We will be presenting the winners of the 2012 Food Forward Awards in the following categories: Breakout Food Activist, Spicy New Venture, Sweet New Initiative, Food Forward Outstanding Member. Help us congraulate the winners.

Food Forward is celebrating the success and achievements of our members and partners, so come try some local appetizers and drinks, and lots of tasty raffle prizes from our members and Toronto food start-ups.

Hear from musical guest Maria Kasstan and spoken word artist Ritallin.

We're also hosting a free bicycle tour of good food initiatives in Trinity-Spadina, join us starting at 3PM same day at the People's Peas Garden in West Queen's Park (north of Wellesley).
