Your chance to experience the unique farm and culinary scene of Abbotsford is coming up next month.
The Taste of Abby Fall Food Festival is back in the Fraser Valley to celebrate flavours, food cultures and culinary experiences from Sept. 15 to 24, 2023.
The festival returns for its second annual edition offering a variety of food creations and farm-to-table menus.
"Beyond the opportunity to savour some delicious dishes, the festival introduces residents and visitors to new and local experiences, connecting them with the growers and producers responsible for these amazing flavours and ingredients,” says Craig Nichols, Executive Director of Tourism Abbotsford, in a media release.
The festival will kick off with a night market held at Jubilee Park in Downtown Abbotsford, which will have live music, artisan shopping, and tastes of fall flavours from Abbotsford’s makers including farmers, chefs, and winery, brewery and cidery owners.
The night market will be followed by a week of unique farm experiences, seasonal bites, ciders and beer releases, grape stomping, a guided farm tour and more.
"This rich food culture is part of what makes Abbotsford the cultural and economic hub of Fraser Valley," said Mayor Ross Seimens.
