Culinary Tourism Alliance

Sectorial Organizations and Associations - national

We believe the best way to experience culture is through food.

Food serves to connect us with the land, our heritage and the people around us. It is a diverse and dynamic channel for sharing stories, forming relationships and building communities. By combining local food and drink with travel, food tourism offers both locals and tourists alike an authentic taste of our bountiful country while contributing to a sustainable world economy.

Along with our member destinations, we are actively contributing to our province’s edible history by creating fruitful relationships in communities across the province –from the farm up – to cultivate a better, more delicious Canada. Though our roots are firmly planted in Ontario soil, our branches reach beyond borders, minimizing the distance between field and fork across the globe.
