This week, we are raising a glass to Middle Mounta This week, we are raising a glass to Middle Mountain Mead! An artisan honey winery operating on Hornby Island, owners Helen and Steve have been crafting premium small-batch meads since 2003. Every bottle of mead they create comes from the beauty and bounty of their farm where they grow lavender, currants, apples, grapes, and roses! What started as a passion for growing the things they loved turned into mead-making and a commitment to revive one of the world’s oldest beverages.

Stop by the New West Farmers Market this Thursday, October 1st, and learn about how their handcrafted meads celebrate both local agriculture and centuries of tradition!
In honour of the National Day of Truth and Reconci In honour of the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation, the NWFM will be matching donations made at the market on Thursday, October 1st and 8th up to $500 to the Spirit of the Children Society, which aims to empower and strengthen Indigenous families by providing support and resources through various programs. Stop by our Info Booth to make a donation.

Today, we pause to recognize and honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and those who never returned home, as well as the families and communities who continue to carry the impacts of these institutions and of ongoing colonialism. 
 
The health and wellbeing, including food security, of Indigenous Peoples continue to be profoundly impacted by colonialism, systemic racism, and structural inequities. These harms are not histories; they are lived realities that demand sustained action.

Indigenous Peoples have sustainably stewarded these lands since time immemorial and Indigenous food ways are deeply connected to land, community, ceremony, and cultural continuity. These relationships, rites and practices been immeasurably disrupted by colonialism.

We recognize that reconciliation is not a singular act or day, but a collective practice we must cultivate, guided by Indigenous leadership and grounded in trust, humility, and justice.

Food systems are shaped by relationships to land, culture, power, knowledge, and community. As a community hub at this intersection, the NWFM is committed to advancing Indigenous food sovereignty and food security, supporting the revitalization of traditional foodways and knowledge, and creating greater access, equity, and participation at our market.

We encourage our market community to use today as an opportunity to learn, listen, and reflect on what truth and reconciliation means in your own communities and relationships.

PS: We’ve shared some free educational resources in our bio, including a list Indigenous cookbooks featuring traditional recipes. Consider finding a recipe, learning about its history and cultural significance, and sharing it with loved ones. 

With care,

-The NWFM Team
