Slow Food Edmonton’s First Market Mob

June 20, 2013 by Valerie Lugonja 13 Comments

An initiative to support our local producers

Market Mob Group Pic 1

 Above are the early arrivals. Slow Food Edmonton’s new provident child: The Market Mob is the brainchild of Amanda Van Spronsen. Last night, ten Slow Food Edmonton members and friends descended upon Southwest Edmonton’s Farmer’s Market to support our local producers and farmers.

 The idea is simple. LIKE the Slow Food Edmonton Facebook Page and you will be notified when and where the next Market Mob will be. Meet at the pre-determined location with a wad of cash to spend on great local food. Amanda will welcome you (we all will, promise!) then set us free with our cash to spend wisely with instructions for the rendezvous spot and time to show off our loot… and eat and drink some more. Any excuse for a little party: food and drink is at the heart of all that we do!

Emily McKenzie designed the logo… it takes a team, after all, to pull of a great time. Fun and food was had by all. Join us!

    What a jolly event! 🙂 If I lived in Edmonton I’d be there in a hot second. 🙂 I’m looking forward to term break next week so that I can meet up with my friends at the market too. 🙂

      Market visits are as important to me when I travel as the museums and architecture.
