If you’re missing the barbequed salmon that was always offered at Steveston’s Salmon Festival every year, you can now take home a prepared meal kit at the end of June.
Steveston Salmon Festival organizers are offering a ready-to-cook meal kit for four people to commemorate Canada Day this year.
The meal costs $35 and includes a 1.2-pound wild sockeye salmon fillet, potato salad, green salad, buns, four drinks and a large bag of potato chips.
Proceeds from the meals will benefit the Steveston Community Society and Richmond Agricultural and Industrial Society this year.
The Steveston Salmon Festival is traditionally one of the biggest Canada Day celebrations in the Lower Mainland, attracting up to 80,000 people with parades, concerts and the salmon barbeque.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, for the second year in a row, Richmondites are being invited to a “Canada Day at Home” event, with online programming organized by the City of Richmond and the Steveston Salmon Festival Society.
Community members interested in the meal kit must submit their pre-orders in by Tuesday, June 22.
Pick-ups will take place via a COVID-19 drive-through in the Steveston Community Centre parking lot on June 30 between noon and 7 p.m.
