On July 25, 2010, the City of Surrey’s Agricultural Advisory Committee hosted the third annual ‘Flavours of Surrey’ outdoor food tasting event at the Historic Stewart Farm.
The event featured local award-winning chef, Marilyn Pearson of “Cuisine & Company,” who prepared a delicious array of dishes with a focus on Surrey grown and produced ingredients. The food tasting ticket price included beer sampling provided by Big Ridge Brewing Company and wine sampling from River's Bend Winery.
Along with food tasting, there was also a free Farmer’s Market where the public could purchase fresh local produce from Surrey farmers and a variety of goods from local artisans. Live entertainment was provided by "The Halifax Wharfrats," "Jennifer Kennedy" and the “The Dixie Strollers.” There was also farm animals and interactive children’s activities such as seed planting along with gardening workshops and information about local agriculture.
It was an afternoon of food, fun and festivities for the whole family!
