Television appearances, farm tours and more: 4 updates from VG Meats

When it rains, it pours—but sometimes, that’s a good thing! We’ve had a busy couple of weeks at VG Meats and there’s no sign of things slowing down any time soon. Believe us, we’re not complaining. Between an exciting television appearance, some farm tour planning, summer holidays and the fall season ahead, there’s a lot going on (and it’s wonderful).

Here are a few quick updates from the VG Meats team. Thanks for reading—we hope to see you in our Simcoe or Stoney Creek retail locations soon!

We were on TV last night!

Did you happen to catch VG Meats on episode 3 of the new CHCH culinary program, TASTED HERE? It aired last night! Cory and Kyle Van Groningen both appeared in a segment on Ontario beef. We’ll post a link to watch the episode online as soon as it’s available—keep an eye on our social media channels for the clip! We’re excited to share it with you all.

Farm tours are happening soon

In case you missed it: Cory Van Groningen will be welcoming customers, food service operators and other local food enthusiasts to Hillview Farm every Wednesday afternoon in September. All of the details are available here—we hope you’ll join us! And if you have any questions or require assistance signing up for a farm tour, just let us know. Our team would be pleased to help.

It’s almost Labour Day

While we hate to see the end of summer, we love a long weekend—and Labour Day is coming up fast! We’ll be sharing long weekend meal ideas on the blog next week but in the meantime, please check out our in-store specials, bundles and other family favourites. You can also register your FREE Solar Dollar Rewards account to gain access to exclusive offers, flash sales and more!

Back-to-school season is coming

With the end of summer comes the return of school days. That means planning lunch boxes, easy weeknight dinners and after-school snacks for the whole family. We’ll focus on this topic in an upcoming blog post, but let this serve as a reminder: stock up on your favourite local products now, because the school bus will be at the end of your street in no time.

We’re proud to produce high quality, delicious Ontario beef, poultry, lamb and pork products, and we appreciate your support of local food and regenerative agriculture!
