We are working to design an online “B.C. Food Directory” to better connect commercial buyers with B.C. food products, producers and processors.  We really appreciate your willingness to share your experience, knowledge, and expertise with us. Your feedback will help improve information sharing and create connections and opportunities for B.C. producers and processors.
