Welcome to a special fall edition of the Edible Valley Podcast! In this episode, we dig into the rich diversity of squash - from sweet delicata and creamy buttercup to vibrant Hubbard and nutty acorn varieties - and explore how harvest time shapes our local food system. We talk with growers and chefs about what makes certain squash stand out, flavour tips, storage secrets, and what to expect during this season’s barns-full of fresh produce.
Plus, we chat about three upcoming events you won’t want to miss:
Seafood Festival Dinner with Avi Stienberg — October 18 at 40 Knots Winery. A special evening celebrating local seafood and culinary craftsmanship.
Culinary Team Canada in town — November 1 & November 3: Two exclusive dinners featuring top-tier chefs collaborating with local producers.
Island Taste Trail (Oct 29 – Nov 16) — a fall-wide celebration of Vancouver Island flavours. Participating restaurants and cafés in the Comox Valley and Parksville / Qualicum Beach will offer locally inspired pairings and dishes.
Tune in to get inspired for your own fall menus — and to find your next delicious night out.
