| Are you a part of the Slocan Valley food community? We’d love to hear from you! We’re bringing back the Slocan Valley Grown Local Food Guide digital and printed map for the 2026 growing season. This guide helps locals and visitors find and support farms, food producers, markets, grocers and garden resources across the Valley. We will be reprinting the Local Food Guide and distributing it to local residents through Canada Post and various local businesses. The map will be promoted on social media and featured on our community website: www.slocanvalley.com. We’re currently updating listings and welcoming new ones. Deadline to submit is Friday, April 12. Below is the 2023 map brochure. If your business is listed, please take a moment to review it and let us know if any updates are needed. Space is limited, so listings include a short description, an address (optional), and either an email or website. If you’d like to have your food-related business included, please send us your: 🌱 Business name 🌱 Short description 🌱 Address 🌱 Email or website Deadline: Friday, April 12 If you’re not sure whether your business or offering fits, feel free to reach out, we’re happy to connect.

And if you haven’t already, we also encourage you to join the Kootenay Food Council Food & Farm Directory. It’s another great way to increase your visibility across the region.
