Devour The Food Film Fest
450 Main Street B4P 1A5 Wolfville, NS, Canada

What would Devour! be without our Scotiabank Bank Big Picture Program?! We’re so thrilled to have Scotiabank back as a Devour! sponsor to help us educate through film.

Shoutout to Ciaran of Threesixfive for taking in the sights and capturing Devour! 9.5 on video for our next sizzler reel. We can’t wait to see how it turns out. #Devour2020 #DevourFest

Scenes from a socially-distanced Devour! 9.5 debrief yesterday with the team. We’re proud of them and all the work they do behind-the-scenes to make Devour! what it is. Newtrailsoutthere

Not only did we introduce online streaming to Devour! 9.5, but we were also fortunate enough to screen our films safely and physically distanced in-person at the Al Whittle Theatre and Valley Drive In Theatre. What was your favourite Devour! 9.5 film?

The perks of attending a Devour! film: being spoiled with snacks!! Local baker, Abby of Two Birds Sweets & Treats had some goodies on hand for the film Love Sarah w/The Coin, which was a nice surprise for ticket buyers last night! And to finish on a high note, our Culinary Coordinator, Chef Jason Lynch also had food waiting for the attendees of the Closing Gala Film The Truffle Hunters w/En Route. #FoodFromFilms #DevourFest #Devour2020 #FilmFestival #FoodFestival

And just like that, we're saying "Peace out" to Devour! 9.5! Thank you to our staff and volunteers, who worked tirelessly to create and execute our reimagined festival. We would also like to thank all of those who joined us safely in person and those who tuned in online, including festival goers and participating workshop hosts and speakers from near and far, and all the businesses, sponsors, and culinary students who lent a helping hand. And to all the filmmakers, what would this food film fest be without you? We hope you'll all join us again next year, because we've got something big cooking...

This one's for all the food, film AND dog lovers (we know you're out there!) What better way to wrap up our 2020 festival than with the Closing Gala Film, The Truffle Hunters playing tonight with En Route at the Al Whittle Theatre Come join us in person for one last last hurrah at 8pm. Tickets available at https://devourfest.com//closing-gala-film-the-truffle-hun/

The ‘Making Engaging Food Television with Dennis The Prescott' workshop is live in person now at Devour! HQ (and streaming online). As Dennis said, The food community is inherently positive and joyful, so why not lean into it, especially at this timefood should be beautiful, fun, joyful and stress-free. And what better way to wrap up our Devour! 9.5 workshops, because we couldn’t agree more.

We're having fun with Haskap and chef Martin Ruiz Salvador! Martin showed us how to incorporate this superfood into two delishes... delicioush ishes... ahem, delicious dishes. (it's a tongue twister, ok?)

Our Great Devour! Community Dinner is happening now! Join us at 360 Main Street and receive a delicious barbecue chicken dinner in exchange for a cash donation for our regional food banks

Dreaming about today's workshop with Chef Nuit Regular and Ali Hassan featuring her Pad Thai recipe! Can't wait to try out more of her recipes from her new cookbook, Kiin, which is available at the Devour! retail shop at 360 Main St. During the workshop, Chef Nuit Regular told us that as a teenager, she made Pad Thai to feed her family and students in her community. Thanks so much for joining us from a distance, Nuit and Ali!... RBC Russell Hendrix Foodservice Equipment Egg Farmers of Nova Scotia
