MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
COLLABORATE & BUILD YOUR NETWORK
at our quarterly Industry Events.
These seasonal events bring together growers, suppliers, tourism operators, business owners, chefs and everyone in between to connect and collaborate in preparation for the quarter ahead. The Tweed Artisan Collective invites prominent keynote speakers to share their knowledge and discuss insights into upcoming food and agritourism trends.
Want something specific grown for next season’s menu? Struggling to find a good local printer for your collateral? Want to connect and share ideas with other operators in your industry? Want to launch a new product to your peers? These events are for you.

This landmark event happens twice a year – March and October. The program is full of amazing, bespoke consumer experiences from our membership base. Many unique collaborations are formed in the creation of these experiences. A platform for members to test-run a concept that may lead to an on-going event or experience.
