FABx23
Creston BC, the agricultural heart of the Basin was home to FABx23! The Basin Food Expo & Summit had a few notable additions in Creston including a wagon ride chefs tour of the Yaqan Nukiy Ranch, Swan Valley Honey House tour and the Kootenay Farms Food Hub Innovation Centre tour. The event’s piece de resistance was an incredibly special greenhouse chef driven farm dinner in the transformed Morris Flower Nursery Greenhouse. We had #270 Registered attendees and welcomed the whole community for the public Marketplace which was a bustling celebration of local food.

FABx21
2020 / 2021 presented unique challenges to events around the world. FABx pivoted gracefully into a digital conference space. With a virtual expo showroom, zoom based presenters and networking opportunities the event still managed to draw a great crowd and share a taste of the Basin with participants via snail mail.
2021 EXPO included # 60 Exhibitors
FABx19
This epic 3 days summit + expo was held at Red Mountain in Rossland. The event included two days of local food and agriculture presentations, the Expo, and programming from the Young Agrarians.
2019 EXPO included # 52 Exhibitors
FABx18
This is where it all began. A key takeaway from the 2018 Agriculture Conference in Cranbrook identified that Basin producers needed a way to market their products and promote the region and network with their peers. FABx was born and launched in Nelson BC as a one day expo.
2018 EXPO included # 55 Exhibitors
