SAVOUR Muskoka is excited to introduce its 2010 Limited Edition Associate Membership Passport. Highlighting local farmers, culinary artisans, restaurants, chefs and food retail outlets, the passport gives the consumer an opportunity to discover the great food grown and harvested in Muskoka / Parry Sound. The passport fee of $40 entitles the SAVOUR Muskoka Associate Member to benefits such as newsletters profiling restaurants and chefs in the area, a regional food guide as well as a passport valued at over $1000 in savings from SAVOUR Muskoka Members. The consumer can purchase a passport from our website www.savourmuskoka.com or by contacting one of our 100 members.

SAVOUR Muskoka has been incorporated as a not-for-profit organization since 2008 and as a working organization since 2005. With its mission to facilitate the successful development of the Muskoka region as a dynamic culinary tourism destination, SAVOUR Muskoka has developed an extensive network of local farmers and restaurants who offer regional culinary products, experiences and packages that are unique to Muskoka. To ensure a sustainable future, SAVOUR Muskoka is now looking to the consumer to get involved.

With the sale of the passport to the consumer, SAVOUR Muskoka will have the sustainable framework which will provide the organization with the opportunity to continue its community promotions, workshops, networking opportunities, and research projects with provincial Colleges and Universities. Inevitably the consumer will provide SAVOUR Muskoka with the financial support it needs in order to become a self sustaining organization.

SAVOUR Muskoka continues to engage the consumer and with the consumer membership our incorporated not-for profit organization will move forward with its mandate of self sustainability. We strive to bring added value and market investment to the community of Muskoka / Parry Sound.
