Over the past year, Rowe and her team visited farmers, processors, chefs and artisans in the Golden Horseshoe to capture a slice of the vibrant activity in this food and farming cluster, one of North America’s largest. The show’s tour takes the viewer from vineyards to cafe kitchens, farmers markets to hydroponic farms, each serving up a taste of Ontario. Some of the notable appearances include:
- Curtis Fielding of Fielding Estate Wines, representing the Niagara wine region, home to over 100 wineries
- Tom Wilson, owner of Spirit Tree Cidery in Caledon and former president of the Golden Horseshoe Soil and Crop Improvement Association
- Celebrity Chef Brad Long of Cafe Belong at Evergreen Brickworks in Toronto
- Jeremy Kessler of Kozlik’s Mustards at St. Lawrence Market in Toronto
