Discover how Feast On connects Ontarians with businesses committed to local sourcing.

As Canadians continue to place greater value on knowing where their food comes from, supporting local has become about more than making a purchase—it’s about investing in stronger communities, resilient supply chains and the people who grow, raise and produce our food. That’s where Feast On® comes in.

Feast On is Ontario’s local food and drink certification program and North America’s largest and longest running local food certification program. A Feast On certification verifies that businesses source their goods and ingredients with purpose, supporting Ontario’s farmers and makers that are working the land in ethical and sustainable ways. Businesses earn certification by demonstrating that they meet rigorous local sourcing standards, giving consumers confidence that the Feast On designation represents a genuine commitment to supporting Ontario-grown and Ontario-made food and beverages.

Across Ontario, Feast On certified businesses showcase the incredible diversity of the province’s culinary landscape. From localy inspired dining at Verdicchio Ristorante | Enoteca in Sudbury, Borealis Grille & Bar in Guelph and The Everly Restaurant & Lounge in Kingston, to award-winning wines at Rosehall Run Vineyards in Prince Edward County, memorable stays at Hotel Wolfe Island, and unique agritourism experiences like Udderly Ridiculous Farm Life in Bright, every certified business shares a commitment to supporting Ontario’s local food and drink economy.

Supporting local starts here

When businesses choose to source locally, the benefits extend far beyond the dining table. Local purchasing helps create opportunities for Ontario farmers, producers and makers, keeps more food dollars circulating within local communities, celebrates regional flavours and contributes to a stronger, more resilient food system.

For consumers, Feast On offers a trusted way to identify businesses that are committed to local sourcing. Explore Feast On certified businesses to discover restaurants, wineries, breweries, cideries, farms and culinary experiences across the province that have earned certification through their commitment to supporting local.

For hospitality businesses, Feast On provides an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to local sourcing while joining a growing network of businesses that are helping strengthen Ontario’s food and drink sector. Learn how to become Feast On certified.

Whether you’re planning your next memorable meal, discovering a new destination or simply looking to support Ontario’s food and drink community, choosing a Feast On certified business means supporting Ontario’s local food system while experiencing a true taste of the province.
