2023 Taste of the Valley Vendor Applications

Taste of the Valley is an indoor/outdoor market event that celebrates all things grown, made and created within Renfrew County! 

Originally introduced in October 2006, the event is now held four times per year between August and October in a select number of communities across Renfrew County.
