Where To Support Local This October

If you are looking for some fun fall experiences in Old Town Toronto, well then you have come to the right place. Sure, we have your must have Pumpkin Spice Lattes, the classic autumn drink, but once you have filled up on PSLs for the gram you will want to try the Pistachio Orange Blossom Latte one of our local coffee shops has on offer. (Read that again… Pistachio Orange Blossom!)

An art exhibit featuring tattoo inspired works from an up and coming queer Filipina artist is a great way to infuse a little culture into your week. Ride that culture wave and head to Toronto’s First Post office to attend their Fall Author Series. Or, if you are looking to enjoy one last outdoor pint, come sip your favourite lager at Beer Fest.

Have something to celebrate? Maybe a birthday with a good friend? Discover the decadent chocolate afternoon tea service at our historic hotel. (Bonus – part of the proceeds go to a local charity with supportive and educational programs for those living with cancer.)

We know it is not all fun and games though. When summer ended, many returned to the office or other places less aligned with vacation mode. If you find yourself in this category we have two things to say to you. 1) Business cards are multi purpose, (scroll down and you will understand what we mean.) 2) Team lunches make the week better and we have a super tasty and healthy option for you.

We SO appreciate you supporting local and hope to see you soon. Please scroll on to discover all this and more right here in Old Town Toronto.

Art ‘n’ About Continues at Spiritleaf Adelaide

October marks the first anniversary of Spiritleaf Adelaide and we will be celebrating the whole month through. Check out our Instagram for in-store events, activations and celebrations, including Munchy Mondays and Thirsty Thursdays!

Don’t forget: our Art ‘n’ About artist series continues with our featured artist of the month, Sapphink Prints. These beautiful block prints are the work of Grace, a Toronto-based, queer Filipina artist who has found her passion in Block printing. Through her designs inspired by tattoos, Grace aims to provide the same sense of joy, calmness, and wonder that carving brings to her, to those who enjoy her prints. Join us for refreshments on Friday, 7 October, 4-7pm and to meet the artist. There is no requirement for purchase.
