Great Canned Goodness

The Tofino Community Food Initiative has been working hard, preparing holiday goodies for you. Please come and visit our booth at this weekend's craft fair at the Weigh West. Although the craft fair is on Saturday (1 to 7) and Sunday (11 to 4), the TCFI will only be there on Saturday so get there early to ensure you won't miss out on such delectable (and well-named) treats as:

A Hint of Mint Organic Strawberry Jam

Sunset Point Pickled Kelp

"Tastes Like Apple Pie and Ice Cream" BC Apple Butter

"Can't Get Enough Of It" Spicy Tomato Chutney

Star Struck Pickled Port Alberni Beets

and much more. See you there!

All proceeds to support the TCFI's work in our community.

Garden Party - Tomorrow!

We hope to see you at the garden party tomorrow (Sunday, June 27) afternoon. It is a fundraiser for the community garden. The tea will be held in the garden at 380 Gibson St. — rain or shine (we have lots of tents on stand-by). The tea includes sweet and savory goodies, hot and cold tea, entertainment and garden games. Tickets are $12 in advance, $15 at the garden gate and $5 for children ages 10 and under. You can get tickets at Green Soul Organics, Chocolate Tofino, Storm Surf or from Adrienne (ak_mason@telus.net) or Leah (tofinolocalfood@yahoo.ca). There are sittings at 1 and at 3, but if either of those times don't work, please come when you can. Hope to see you tomorrow!
