Select Nova Scotia

 

Buy Local. Eat Fresh.

This year the Incredible Picnics will be held across the province on various weekends in August, all with rain locations!  Create a picnic lunch from local foods being sold by farmers and restaurants at the picnic sites. 

Leave the day-to-day routine behind and get back to the roots of family, community, nature and good food. Food, live music, and children’s activities will ensure this is a memorable experience for you, your family, and friends.

By choosing local foods, Nova Scotians are making a difference for our farmers, for our economy and for our way of life. Enjoy fresh, favourful meals that are easy to prepare and take advantage of excellent and readily available local ingredients.
