Barry’s Bay kicks off the 2026 Taste of the Valley season with a vibrant celebration of local flavour, talent, and community spirit. As the first event of the year, it sets the tone for what’s to come—bringing together an incredible lineup of vendors, including artisans and food producers from across Renfrew County. Whether you’re out to just sample, discovering handcrafted goods, or soaking in the lively atmosphere, Barry’s Bay is the perfect place to start your Taste of the Valley journey. Thank you to our partners, the Township of Madawaka Valley, for making this event possible.
