TORONTO – Local farmers and food growers have donated over 11,000 lbs. of food in support of Soupstock, a large-scale culinary event protesting a proposed mega-quarry north of Toronto.

Truckloads of produce were dropped off at the Evergreen Brick Works in the Don River valley on Wednesday morning, greeted by volunteers and chefs who are participating in Soupstock this Sunday at Woodbine Park.

Over 200 of North America's top chefs will turn local ingredients into original soup creations.
