As the temperatures begin to drop and the leaves change colour, the time for fall suppers has returned in Manitoba.
As the temperatures begin to drop and the leaves change colour, the time for fall suppers has returned in Manitoba.
Fall suppers are an age-old Manitoba tradition that occur in communities across the province from mid-September into November.
They began more than 100 years ago in rural communities as a way for people to come together and celebrate the end of the harvest.
Over the years, the community-focused events have expanded into fall feasts that typically take place at community centres, curling clubs, or church halls.
“It’s just that chance to kick off the fall season, which is short but precious here, before winter sets in and people are maybe a little less wanting to drive and go out,” said Louise Waldman, director of communications at Travel Manitoba.
For anyone heading to a fall supper this year, it might be a good idea to wear a pair of stretchy pants as you are in for a delicious and hearty meal.
