Just a reminder that the Canadian Chefs’ Congress is coming fast! We’ll be closing the online registration on Friday, September 19 at 5:00 pm EST. If you wish, you may still register at the farm, just remember – at the farm we cannot accept credit cards. You may pay in person with cash or cheque only. If you choose to take advantage of one of the roughly 30 remaining seats on the bus from the Palais Royale, you’ll also need to bring cash or a cheque. We will have a desk for purchasing water bottles and t-shirts, etc. you will want to bring some cash for those purchases also. The closest bank machine to the farm, is approximately 1/2 an hour away by car.

Steffan Howard, Executive Chef of The Palais Royale Ballroom has generously offered for our shuttle bus to embark from the Palais Royale parking lot. The bus will start boarding on Sunday morning, September 21 at 6:00 am. Chef Steffan has also offered to have organic coffee, tea and snacks available for all those taking the shuttle to the Canadian Chefs’ Congress. The Palais Royale Ballroom is located at 1601 Lakeshore Blvd. W., Toronto. The map to the Palais is shown below. You can download a copy by clicking the map.
