For all the gourmets and gourmands, we have the way to introduce your taste buds to Stratford and experience how our local chefs combine all the great local foods to create their gastronomic reputations. Common Ground, on September 23, is our annual salute to the fall season. Each year we match our local food masters with chefs from the region to create a bucolic afternoon of sampling and sipping the local cuisine amidst soothing jazz at McCully's Hill Farm.

Over 10 top local chefs and 20 local food purveyors will create the culinary moods and moments to while away a perfect Sunday afternoon in a heritage Ontario country vale. What a tasty way to begin your experience of our October 100-Mile celebration. For complete information visit McCully's Hill Farm.
