five successful and tremendously fun years of Picnic at the Brick Works , together Slow Food Toronto and Evergreen have decided it is time to host a new harvest event that is as wonderful, but a little different. Taking into consideration fresh ideas, and learned experience from the past, we wish to share the harvest this year at an all-ages family and friends gathering that will combine local food and music, served in the old-time country style of a cook out. This celebration supports us and our community in our transition as we plan and look forward to launching our new harvest event at the Brick Works in the fall of  2013 : The Slow Food Barn Dance and Cook Out . Why the change? In the continued spirit of linking the pleasure of good food with a commitment to our community and the environment, we are very excited to offer an experience that is reminiscent of an old time social.
