"Grow what we eat. Eat what we grow." Connect with local food leaders, discover new opportunities, and grow your agrifood business network.

Strathcona County, along with Connect for Food, are thrilled to present the 2025 Agrifood Connector, Monday, November 3, at Festival Place.

The day will bring together food producers, processors, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, restaurateurs, equipment suppliers, financiers, and marketers to connect and grow.

We are pleased to present our keynote speaker, Sanford Gleddie, The Little Potato Company Executive VP Sales, Marketing & Business Development, who will explore Grow What we Eat. Eat What we Grow: Cultivating our Domestic Food System.

Ample networking opportunities, both structured and unstructured, will be incorporated to make meaningful connections. Locally-sourced fare will be served throughout the day.

Building on the Connect for Food Roundtable discussions in Strathcona County in April 2025, this event will be a catalyst to shift toward a more resilient food system model, rooted in improved supply-demand connections that ensure locally sourced products are reaching consumers.
