Durham is home to some of the best farmland in Ontario and has hundreds of producers who supply kitchens across the region with incredible produce, meat, and other products like maple syrup and cider.

Feast On® is a certification program that recognizes restaurants and suppliers who have demonstrated their commitment to using local ingredients on their menus and in their offerings. Managed by the Culinary Tourism Alliance, the Feast On® certification makes it easier for food lovers to find and support local food. It is a celebration of Ontario grown food and drink, and badge of honour for those who are certified.

In celebration of Local Food Week, Durham’s Feast On® certified restaurants and suppliers have shared dishes that highlight the use of local ingredients.
