The adventure continues

By now it should come as no surprise that I am loving the energy surrounding 2017 and all things #Canada150. We have some exciting partnerships that we will be announcing soon to help celebrate with Canadians from coast-to-coast.

It was such a pleasure to join friends over a delicious menu designed by Bob Blumer centered around the delicious items available at KFC. Come see what the farm experience was all about!
