Earth Day is still a couple of weeks away, but the City of Calgary is supporting a number of events throughout the month to help you “make every day Earth Day”. One of the first goings-on this month is “Down to Earth Week“, an event “showcasing the best in local food & responsible business”, and put on by the non-profit REAP Calgary which will run until April 11th.
They are encouraging Calgarians to dine at a number of local restaurants during the week which serve cuisine crafted from local ingredients, including The Coup on 17th and the more up-scale River Café on Prince’s Island Park. The week will conclude with Food For Thought at the Uptown, which for $15 will get you an evening composed of a local & sustainable dinner, a screening of Food Fight, and a follow-up party in the Marquee, for those who are of legal drinking age.
There are a number of other events and promotions going on before the 22nd, which you can find more about on the City website.
