Harmon's Craft Brewing |
Non-Alcoholic Beer | Created in 2021 by Mill Street Brewery co-founder Steve Abrams & Brewmaster Rob Doyle, Harmon's is on a mission to brew delicious non-alcoholic craft beer. Drawing on our 40+ combined years of industry experience, we've adapted and updated methods used by generations of small brewers to create an innovative way of making non-alcoholic beer. We believe the best way to make great beer is to work within existing brewing frameworks. That means no fancy equipment or special technology is used to remove the alcohol after fermentation. We just rely on clever recipe design and close attention to detail. P.S. We're often asked where our name comes from. Well, we named it "Harmon's" in honour of Steve's late mother, Lois Harmon Abrams. | Quality | Affordable | harmonsbeer.com | |

Peacasa Snacks |
Snacks | Victor grew up between Ontario and the South of France and always dreamed of bringing the best parts of the Mediterranean food culture to Canada. Aaron grew up near Toronto and was obsessed with experimenting in the kitchen to make healthier versions of his favourite snacks. We met in University and after graduating, decided to go on an adventure to the heart of the Mediterranean. After 12 days traversing the mountains of Corsica on the GR20 trail, we visited a street market in the South of France. Victor introduced Aaron to a traditional snack enjoyed in the Mediterranean for centuries: a delicious wood-fired crepe made from chickpeas and olive oil called 'Socca'. We agreed we had to bring it to Canada and started a journey to transform this chickpea snack into a delicious chip. We spent a year experimenting with hundreds of different recipes and sold the chips at farmers markets in Toronto. Chip manufacturers told us that they couldn't make chips out of chickpeas without adding rice, corn, or potatoes, so we decided to open our own manufacturing plant to make them our way. Peacasa is a deliciously light and crispy chip made from chickpeas. Join the adventure to make chickpeas into the best snacks in North America. | Quality | Affordable | peacasa.com | |

New Moon Cookies |
Bakery | New Moon Kitchen was born when Eden Hertzog was fresh out of high school, trying to figure out what to do with her life. A passionate vegan baker who held a part-time baking job throughout her last years of high school, she decided to try selling her baked goods as a way to make some cash for a trip to California. She originally named the company “Eden’s Edibles” and her dad delivered the goods across town from the back seat of his car. The products were an instant hit, and before she knew it, Eden had herself a little business she had never formally planned for. Sometimes life figures it out for you… She’s also, still, just saving money for trips to California. | Sustainability | Affordable | newmooncookies.com | |
| Stellar Eats |
Food | From a young age, our founding female team noticed that we were inundated with damaging messages that told us the purpose of eating nourishing foods was to look a certain way. We felt overwhelmed by the healthy products being marketed to us as 'skinny', 'guilt-free', 'flat-tummy' or other words that make healthy eating all about how you look. This focus on appearance is so detrimental to the impressionable young population. We want to change the conversation around health food to make it empowering as opposed to guilt-driven and we believe there’s an opportunity for brands like us to rewrite this damaging narrative. We’re creating delicious flavour and perfect texture using 8 (or less) real food ingredients because we want you to enjoy your favourite foods and feel amazing. | Sustainability | Affordable | stellareats.com | |

Hornby Organic |
Energy Bars | Hornby Organic is founded on a simple family recipe. Our mission is to make affordable organic food without our planet and customers paying the price. Our story began on the incredible gulf island of Hornby, where life is slow, in the best way. It’s home to a special kind of people who are self-reliant and do things a little differently. Our founder, Irah, grew up in this unique place where in the 70s his grandparents started an organic farm. But, it was Irah’s hard-working mom who we owe a big thank you. Our recipe comes from her ever popular Hornby Island Energy Balls, which she spent years perfecting. Years later, Irah saw his own opportunity. What if he could share his mom’s recipe with the rest of the world? The ah-ha moment that sparked Hornby Island Energy Bars! With a lot of hard work and a ton of support, Irah and his girlfriend Cayleigh converted an old garage into a modest food facility where Irah’s entrepreneurial dream grew wings. Today, our founders are still working just as hard to bring tasty, affordable, organic food to you, that will never change. We envision a future where everyone eats organic and hope to lead by example. Our product is certified organic because we believe that this movement begins with the companies who make your food. | Sustainability | Affordable | hornbyorganic.com | |

Hummingbird Chocolate Maker |
Chocolate | Drew and I have always savoured chocolate, but we came to making it in a roundabout way. From Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, we’ve spent our careers working with farmers in developing countries which was just about the best job in the world. We learned much, helped a bit, and gained a huge respect and affection for people who make food, from grower to artisan. Life was a tad spartan, but it was considerably livened up by occasional indulgences of chocolate. When it was time to leave Kabul, it just seemed natural that we’d pursue chocolate making as it lets us connect with farmers, while learning how to craft something we love. We started out casually; a private hobby really. Friends wanted our bars and we experimented more. From there, chocolate became a passion. Soon enough, some insanely talented people joined us, considerably raising our game in the process. Together we’ve become crazily obsessed with making the best possible chocolate we can. There’s so much to learn in chocolate; get the right beans – do the right thing – and the flavours unlocked are incredible. Rush it, and it can be a disaster! We love what we do and reckon it’s worth the time to do it right. | Quality | Affordable | hummingbirdchocolate.com | |
