Not Far From The Tree is celebrating the end of season... and what a season to celebrate! Among other successes, we have picked nearly 7,500 lbs of fruit from Toronto's resplendent canopy. We're throwing a party to celebrate and hope that you will join us. Come for an evening of delectable celebrations. We'll be pressing apple cider, eating local hors d'oeuvres, drawing for an amazing array of door prizes, shaking to DJ beats, and serving up local brews, wines, and city-crafted cocktails. All proceeds help build our programs for the 2010 season.
