So long 2020. As we move into 2021 and recall what was one of the most challenging and unforgiving years for most businesses, we want to recognize the almost FOUR HUNDRED businesses, individuals and organizations that we were able to recognize and promote through the year. And, of course, we want to shout out our most splendid advertising partners as well. Indeed, without these heroes none of this would be possible! We’re constantly humbled by the support we receive and amazed by all the killer businesses - from boutiques to breweries to restaurants to everything in between - that this great region has to offer. Especially when everyone knows that print should be well and dead by now.

Local always.

Here’s to community – and here’s to 2021.

A little something for the holiday season. Our annual ‘Handcraft Issue’ - dedicated to all the makers out there. And made possible by the undying (and oh so smart) support of our advertisers, and with a major boost by the fine folks at @ontariocreates. Enjoy the read! #printisnotdead

Many thanks to all those awesome businesses across our region who don’t only carry our magazine for distribution, but who clamber for more every time the rack’s gone empty! We love you, appreciate you, and will always support you! #printisnotdead

If you haven’t been able to grab a copy of our most recent special issue of TOQUE, focused on the challenges and heroism of small business during COVID, you can still read it online. Check our bio for link to our article on the stark reality of our local restaurant industry during this pandemic. Sobering reading, indeed. #supportlocal #eatlocal

ERRATA
We sincerely regret that the recipe on page 85 of this ‘Special Issue’ of TOQUE (Spring 2020) contains an error that was inadvertently introduced during production, after the recipe was delivered by Chef Byron.

The second paragraph of the ‘Method,’ which reads: ‘Add pork to brine and let sit, covered, at room temperature, for 7 days’ should read: ‘Add pork to brine and refrigerate for 7 days.’ Thanks for your understanding. Print may be permanent - but mistakes can still be un-made!
