Incredible Picnic in Annapolis Royal
Annapolis Royal Farmers and Traders Market



Annapolis Royal hosts an IncrEDIBLE Picnic, Sunday, August 22nd, with eighteen area producers, as Select Nova Scotia shines its spotlight on our local food. You, your family and friends are invited.

Taking part at the Farmer’s Market are Halliday’s U-Pick, Bruce Family Farm, Acadiana Soy Products, Country Nook Café, Homeplace Farm, Wiseacres Produce, Beavercreek Winery, The German Bakery and Café, Inglis Farm, Great Expectations coffee and chocolate treats, Oakhaven Organic Farm, Hog Wild Pulled Pork, Corrine Warner Cupcakes, Bear River Farms, Van Dyk’s Health Juice Products, Wild Rose Farm, Captain Morrissey Atlantic Seafood, and Annapolis Highland Winery.

Showcasing down-home grown and produced fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses, breads and beverages, this 3rd Annual Select Nova Scotia event runs between 11 and 3 at the Farmer’s Market. Plenty of samples! And plenty of tents in case of rain, in case you’re wondering.

There’ll be entertainment, music by Tom Berry and Friends as well as Them Eastport Oyster Boys from Annapolis, Maryland, and displays…some interactive…from the Annapolis Royal Historic Gardens, the UNESCO Southwest Nova Biosphere Reserve and the Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute.

Complement what you’ve brought in your picnic basket from home with fresh, right-from-around-here choices for one IncrEDIBLE picnic.  This year there’s cover in case of rain, so August 22nd is a go, no matter what.

Our IncrEDIBLE Picnic is a buy-local food celebration, a meet, greet and eat, bringing together eighteen producers from our community. Plus, the event coincides with Day Two of Paint the Town, the 15th annual gathering of artists creating art all over town, maybe even painting the Picnic at the Farmers and Traders Market, downtown opposite the Wharf.

Select Nova Scotia was developed by the province to create partnerships with food producers, processors, retailers, food service and consumers and to promote the sale and consumption of Nova Scotia grown and produced food.
