Port Perry Downtown is OPEN – during filming next week
Leave a CommentWe have received the following Notification of Film, by the Township of Scugog:
Hallmark is pleased to announce that it will be filming scenes from the upcoming TV Movie:
“A Sweet Taste of Love” in and around Downtown Port Perry on Tuesday June 19 and Wednesday June 20, 2018
The majority of our filming will be on Queen St from John St. to Water St. We will be filming in different areas at different times each day. We have requested a roads permit allowance to allow angle parking on Queen St. as they do in Red Rock, Texas.
We want to ensure that there is no disruption to any business in this area. To aid in that:
• We will have film personnel guiding people into angle parking when possible. If Queen St. parking is not possible at filming time, friendly personnel will guide customers to Municipal Lots
• We want to encourage folks to come and shop as usual
• Port Perry is Open for Business!
We are sharing this with you so you are aware that next week on Tuesday and Wednesday things may look just a bit different, but downtown Port Perry is still open!
It’s always great to ” meat ” you!!

Ontario’s Finest Butcher Competition – Finalist!
Leave a CommentFurther to our blog post about The Meating Place – 2016 Conference we are pleased to be a Finalist in the Ontario’s Finest Butcher Competition and pleased to share this video about the competition.
The Meating Place – 2016 Conference
Leave a Comment
The Ontario Independent Meat Processors (OIMP) came together for their biennial conference, The Meating Place on October 24th, 2016. OIMP members attended and many were recognized for their accomplishments in a number of different areas.
OIMP is the representative voice of the independent meat and poultry processor in Ontario. The association’s membership includes meat and poultry processors, retailers and wholesalers; industry suppliers, and some not-for-profit organizations in support of OIMP.
On Saturday afternoon Brent Herrington faced off against some tough competition for the title of Ontario’s Finest Butcher, against Nicholas Matusiak, Halenda’s Meats, Oshawa and Peter Baarda, owner of J & G Quality Meats, Burlington. Each butcher had a whole rabbit, chicken, and veal loin from which to prepare merchandisable cuts ready for the barbecue within the allotted half hour. Our congrats go to Peter Baarda on his victory.
