We recently attended the Pillar Nonprofit Network Community Innovation Awards, where all finalists are inspiring and deserving of recognition. Community Innovation Award finalists included Human Environment Analysis Lab (HEAL) at Western University, 519 Pursuit (a non-profit helping the homeless) and the winner, the London Food Coalition (consisting of 23 agencies invested in food security and eliminating food waste). 519 Pursuit went on to win the Community Choice Award. Urban Roots (a non-profit that revitalizes underused land for agriculture in the City of London, producing high-quality organic vegetables and herbs which are distributed directly to consumers and social enterprises) won the Community Impact Award. Several of the finalists were lauded for their work in recognizing food security, and all for supporting our community’s most vulnerable citizens. All of these essential initiatives deserve our support.

Justin and Gregg Wolfe have opened Holy Diver, on the site of the former Nite Owl, next to the Early Bird Diner on Talbot between King and York Street. Smack dab in the middle of Wortley Village, Wolfepack Company Bar is located next door to the premises that now houses the popular breakfast spot Little Bird. The Company Bar is accessible, welcoming and convivial with inspired cuisine that includes house-made charcuterie and small batches of seasonal or artisanal items. Quantities are limited to maintain a high level of quality. The resto seats about 60 customers, and will include two patios, one seating an additional 45 patrons with another additional 30 seats at the front of the restaurant. The menu is reminiscent of the best of the Wolfe of Wortley — but scaled-down. We are long-time fans of Chef Kyle Rose’s salumi underpinned by technique and skill and lots of deep flavours and good fat content. There is Coppa Cotta Carpaccio (salt-cured from the pig’s neck) with truffle, cremini mushroom, arugula and Manchego cheese. Other snacks include creamy chicken liver mousse and chicken fried mushrooms with hen of the woods (maitake), beer and Cheddar dip. The more extensive menu includes other house-made salumi items such as Lamb Prosciutto, Bone Marrow and Sunchokes with honey-garlic sunflower seeds and scallions. 145 Wortley Road, 226-663-4567.

Experiential Tourism is based on developing experiences that allow visitors to use all their senses and interact in a hands-on approach within a region’s culture. An experiential tourism destination provides opportunities for visitors to make deeper connections to regional food stories and become interactively immersed in the local culture guided by knowledgeable insiders. Recently, the third edition of “Unlocked and Inspired” represented the first time this tourism development training occurred in an urban setting. With the help of Ontario’s Southwest and Tourism London’s community team, a number of willing and ready partners emerged, prepared to launch new experiences to the marketplace in 2020. These experience partners include a collaboration of North Moore Catering, The River Room and Rhino Lounge at Museum London, Growing Chefs! Ontario, the London Clay Art Centre, and the Old East Village BIA which partnered with multiple community stakeholders.
As a result of “Unlocked and Inspired,” North Moore Catering, The River Room and Rhino Lounge at Museum London now offer private team building and corporate culinary experiences for groups.

Food, Fire, Feast! A Healthy Diet Means a Healthy Planet emphasizes food literacy as a tourism goal. Food literacy means a person’s ability to correctly read food labels and Canada’s Food Guide, and the aptitude to comprehend essential nutrition well enough to apply that knowledge to food preparation.

Based on the idea that education can alter behaviour, Growing Chefs! Ontario’s dedicated team and passionate volunteers have made tremendous strides by changing the way children and their families perceive food. Growing Chefs is a social enterprise, without peer in Ontario, delivering innovative and impactful childhood learning programming. The winning team at Growing Chefs! creates a high energy atmosphere with several prep and cooking stations for seasonal, hands-on activities with ingredients both foraged and from their teaching garden, guided by expert chefs.
