Gather and Graze in the Back Forty

Prep for your BBQ and Charcuterie

Fresh produce is everywhere in the Back 40.
As you drive through Huron-Kinloss, you will quickly discover that food is a common theme in the Back Forty. From the farmers tending to their crops, to the colourful display of produce at food stands, and the many stores selling items from local producers, you can see that the one thing that connects us is food. We take pride in the food we produce in the Back Forty, and the joy and memories it creates when people come together to eat it. Whether you’re planning an outdoor BBQ or grazing on a delicious charcuterie at the beach, we have created a list of stops to help you prepare for your upcoming gathering.
Now that you know where to pick up your menu items, it’s time to make a day of it and explore the Back Forty. Happy eating!
