BLB & Co.
BLB & Co. was started as an outlet to express founder Stuart Li’s Hong Kong heritage fused with the experience of growing up in the multicultural city of Toronto. BLB stands for Bo Lo Bao aka Hong Kong “PIneapple” Buns – except they don’t have PIneapples in them, the name comes from the crackled appearance of the crust. It’s our signature product and we level it up a notch with flavoured crusts and fillings like Chocolate Hazelnut or Almond Frangipane for example. Along with BLBs,we create other Asian inspired breads and treats fused with North American or European traditions – case in point our Yuzu Miso Buttertart is a unique take on a Canadian classic! We source Canadian and Ontario ingredients when possible, and all flours, grains and dairy products are Canadian.

Sock Footage
Sock Footage is a social enterprise which sells socks and donates a pair to a local homeless shelter for every one purchased. Socks are the most needed, but least donated items at homeless shelters. As such, Sock footage wants to cultivate a meaningful donation experience and support communities in our city.
Evermeadow
Evermeadow is a new regenerative, pasture-based farm in the rolling hills of Northumberland County. Josh and his family will be bringing their organically fed, pastured broiler and roaster chickens to the market for the remainder of the season. They’re working on raising pigs and sheep as well but those animals will only be ready for late autumn.
As a farm, they work to provide nutritious, ethical, and ecologically beneficial food for our communities while increasing the biodiversity and productivity of the land. This description sums up their operation well: Our hens scratch up compacted soil and spread seed and fertile manure; our sheep manage the grass, distribute nutrients, and build soil; our pigs recycle waste nutrients and disturb the soil to prepare for re-seeding pastures; and our broiler chickens bring fertility into the farm as they move daily across the landscape.
