Have plans for lunch tomorrow (beyond chilling on the couch)? Join us for #EatWithMeYEG Old Strathcona Edition - a virtual lunch hangout in support of our local businesses struggling at this time. We are coming together to discuss what we can do to help our community, while enjoying some delicious take-out! Check out our event on Facebook for more details on how to join the Zoom group chat and which restaurants are offering take-out at this time. See you there!
So much has changed in a week, including our perspectives. Things that we have expected and taken for granted in the past are now viewed differently. Today we are grateful. For fresh spring air. For this beautiful, uplifting, supportive community. For the brave healthcare workers. For our loved ones being safe, healthy, and only a FaceTime away. For the time to slow down and enjoy the stillness. What are you grateful for today? Share with us below! •
DELICIOUS fresh sourdough from @laboulebakery
We know that this St. Patrick’s Day probably looks a lot different than the plans that you had ten days ago. Heck, we’ve had to change what to write in this caption a handful of times, as everything is changing day to day, hour to hour. But the silver lining amongst all this has been the hope that we see as so many of you are rallying behind one another in support. We can’t imagine the stress this is putting on local independent businesses and we want you to know that we are here to do our best to continue to help in any way we can! Please, continue to SHARE the love and spread as much kindness as possible. Tag us in your posts on how you’re being inventive, supporting local, and celebrating this St. Paddy’s Day at home! 🍀💚

(These delicious festive treats are by the talented @sugaredandspiced - so happy we got our hands on some earlier in the week!)
With all that is happening in the world right now, we wanted to create a space to share some local love. With more people staying home, and many events being cancelled, small local businesses are struggling. We want everyone to stay healthy and safe, while still ensuring the livelihood of our beloved #yeg makers. Consider buying gift cards, shopping online, or stocking up on freezable/ non-perishable goods. Please help us share the awareness by tagging, following, and sharing your favourite local businesses! Your kindness and support is so appreciated! (We can’t tag everyone so please comment your favourites below and share in stories!)

The blog features over 80 women-owned businesses as part of 28 crawl itineraries across 16 Edmonton and area neighbourhoods (including nearby cities St. Albert, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Sherwood Park, Leduc, and Beaumont!)
