Best Practices in Culinary Tourism & Product Development – Deadline February 18

Taste of Nova Scotia, with the support of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, is leading a Best Practices Mission to Portland, Oregon and the surrounding Willamette and Tualatin Wine Valleys from April 8-14, 2019.

The mission will provide insights and learning opportunities for Taste of Nova Scotia members and Nova Scotia businesses. With Portland's world class wine industry, deeply-rooted food culture, proximity to the Willamette and Tualatin wine-producing valleys, and leading reputation for artisanal entrepreneurship, this destination offers perfect parallels to Nova Scotia's offerings, as well as aspirations for us to emulate and make our own.

Accepted applicants on the Mission will be charged $750.00 + HST ($862.50) to participate.

Please see the Best Practices Mission Overview & Eligibility Criteria and then submit your application form along with payment in the amount of $862.50 no later than 4:00pm Monday, February 18, 2019 to emily@tasteofnovascotia.com.
