🌱 FROM FARM TO FIRE TO FORK 🔥

One of the most incredible parts of my experience at the Inn at Bay Fortune was harvesting fresh produce straight from the farm with @theculinaryfarmer Kevin @mikeledang and their team 🌿

Imagine harvesting in the morning and, just hours later, serving that same harvest to guests! 🤯

Farmer Kevin grows more than 300 varieties of fruits, herbs and vegetables right on the property. The freshness, the flavours and the care that goes into it all is absolutely spectacular.

There’s something truly special about connecting with your ingredients, seeing where they grow, harvesting them with your own hands, and helping turn them into something extraordinary.

This is farm-to-table at its finest. 🌱👨‍🌾

I feel incredibly blessed to have had this experience and to walk away with an even deeper appreciation for the journey from soil to plate. ❤️

Lots to be thankful for this Thanksgiving 🍂🔥

Saturday night marked our final FireWorks Feast of the season, ending with a well deserved toast from our Fire Brigade to celebrate another season of hard work, creativity and unforgettable evenings around the table.

From our chefs, sommeliers and servers to our farmers, housekeepers, guest services, office team and everyone behind the scenes, every person plays a part in bringing these experiences to life. We’re incredibly grateful for the care and dedication that goes into every detail, and for everyone who helped make this season so memorable.

While there’s still more to come with Chefs’ Harvest this fall, we’re taking a moment to celebrate the season behind us and the people who made it all happen.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with good food, good company and plenty to be grateful for. ❤️

A little greenhouse experiment, now ready for its first taste. 🌱

This year, the farm team tried growing turmeric for the first time. There were a few lessons along the way, a few notes made for next season, and finally, a harvest worth getting a little excited about.

Chef Michael and the team had to taste it straight from the soil, of course. Fresh turmeric, grown right here in Fortune Bay, with a flavour that belongs to this particular season and place.

And who knows? You might spot some of it at Chefs’ Harvest, where the best discoveries from the season get their moment.

Chefs’ Harvest culinary retreat packages are available through October 12 at midnight, including a room, dinner for two and more. 🌿🔥 Your experience begins at innatbayfortune.com

Harlee’s “farm project day” 🍎🐾

The project for the day was all about harvesting the apple trees around the Inn. With plenty of apples ready to pick, the team was out gathering them up to be put to good use in the kitchen, in our baking and seasonal creations, and in the cider that will carry the harvest into next year.

Naturally, Harlee considers apple picking one of her favourite farm jobs. She was busy supervising the operation, providing some important quality control, helping with a little apple picking of her own, and making sure there were plenty of apples available for a good game of fetch. 😂

Last year’s apples became this year’s cider, and this year’s harvest is already on its way to becoming next year’s pour. 🍎🍾

There’s just one week left of our regular season, with the FireWorks Feast continuing through October 10. Dining only availability remains this final week, so come taste the cider, savour the season, and join us before we close out the regular season.

The Test Garden got fired up 🌶️🔥

Every year, the Test Garden gives the team something new to explore. This year, it was sweet peppers.

After tasting the varieties raw for the first test, the final test took them to the fire, looking at flavour, texture, sweetness and how each one changed when cooked over the flames.

There’s no single pepper that comes out on top. It’s about what we learn along the way, and which varieties prove themselves worthy of next year’s garden and eventually, the menu.

Another season of growing, testing and tasting in the books. 🌱🔥

Come taste the harvest through the end of Feast season on October 10, or join us for Chef’s Harvest, running through November 7. 🍂 Your Experience begins at innatbayfortune.com

From Apple Tree Lane to the glass. 🍎🥂

Last fall, the farm team gathered bags of wild apples from our Apple Tree Lane. Those became the foundation for this year’s Apple Tree Lane Cider, created in collaboration with our friends at @doublehillcider and brought together with pear and quince for a dry, sparkling cider with plenty of character.

A cheers to the team behind it all, from the farm to the cellar and the glass, including Farmer Mikey and Sommelier Marie Pier, who have helped carry this project from one season to the next. 🥂

This year also brings a new look for Apple Tree Lane, with another beautiful label from our friends at @hoodsearle, the third in our series of Inn drink collaborations.

Enjoy this year’s Apple Tree Lane Cider while you’re here. Soon, the trees will be ready to begin the story for next season again 🍎🥂innatbayfortune.com⁠

Jamie's Great Adventure: Farmer edition!

I'm so thankful the incredible farm team @innatbayfortune took me on to volunteer some time on Kevin Petrie's Culinary Farm. Big shout out to Mikey, Kathleen, and of course, Kevo, for showing me some new things.

Got to harvest some scallions, view the beets I planted, harvested some flowering brassica's, spray some red onions, witness Harlee in all her glory, and mikrogreens galore. There was a lil mothy, some limes, chanterelles, and a potato flower (don't eat em!). We even got to harvest some fairytale eggplants, and beautiful cucumbers!

Seriously, this summer has changed my life, and I feel like I've lived a thousand lifetimes in the past six months. But getting to slow down a bit and appreciate the world's biggest best grocery store just in the Inn's back yard, was out of this world.

These vegetables have so much love and care put into them, and it's truly such a delight to learn from @theculinaryfarmer.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

And if you're a vegetarian, we love you, you're gonna have the best meal of your life, right Kevin? 😝😉

Good things grow here. 🌱

Long before something reaches your plate at the Inn, there’s a lot of work behind it. The Culinary Farm is a year round labour of planning, preparing and growing, with the summer season bringing the gardens to life and the farm team into full swing.

Together, they’re working toward a harvest of more than 300 varieties of fruits, vegetables and herbs, alongside the chickens, pigs and bees that are all part of the living farm ecosystem.

A heartfelt thank you to Head Farmer Kevin Petrie, the farm crew, our landscaping team and all the helping hands who care for this place throughout the year. Harlee, our four legged farm supervisor, has been overseeing operations, naturally. 🐾

There’s still plenty growing, harvesting and making its way to the kitchen. Come taste what’s inspiring the Feast, or join us this fall for Chefs’ Harvest, a celebration of the land, the season and everything the farm has to offer. 🔥 innatbayfortune.com

A few things that are kinda chic about the Inn. We could have kept going 😉🌿

From the way we grow and forage, to the way we cook, pour, welcome and wander, there’s a lot that makes the Inn what it is.

And somehow, it all comes back to the Island. Kinda chic, if you ask us. 🔥 Explore more at innatbayfortune.com
