For the first time ever, Taste of Edmonton will have a local grocer as one of its vendors. Freson Bros. Fresh Market, located in Stony Plain, will be showing off their unique food experience with food from their ‘Kitchens’ — an instore restaurant concept known for serving Alberta beef and pork carefully prepared in their ‘Hardworking, Home Cooking’ tradition. On its first year out, Freson Bros. Kitchens will be serving their famous Ivan’s Sausage with warm cabbage slaw and slow roasted rotisserie pork.
Freson Bros. is the largest, family owned independent grocery chain in Alberta, with their head office in Stony Plain, Alberta. Freson Bros. operates 15 stores across the province and is currently celebrating their 60th year in business. Upon completion of their new Stony Plain store in March 2013, Freson Bros. Fresh Markets’ new bold design concept was awarded the 2014 National Gold Award for Top Independent Grocery Store in Canada (Large Surface).
Taste of Edmonton is Canada’s largest Food Festival, and this year it’s keeping things fresh local and new with programs aimed at the ‘foodie’ in all of us. Taste of Edmonton has been around for over 30 years, and this year, it ran July 16 – 25 at Churchill Square.
