The Dream:
KEG's dream includes an eco-friendly building with cold and dry storage areas, a certified kitchen and butchery, cheese making facilities, office and meeting space, and maybe even a little restaurant! With this on-site facility growers, consumers and chefs could meet on common ground; growers could process their goods into value added items, chefs and community leaders could hold workshops and special events, CSA members could learn to preserve and prepare their food, and KEG could move forward in our mandate to bridge the gaps between urban and rural, and increase public awareness about the issues surrounding Ontario's farms, farmers, and food through community education and good eating!
