Here's the event slideshow.

1st #NorthAfrican #Cookout at Fed Farm in #Vicwest. Absolutely fabulous community event! Lots of delicious #Moroccan & #Tunisian foods were cooked & given to guests to eat. Many stories shared. Beautiful acoustic music was played. Wonderful new local BIPOC connections were made & some lovely reunions occurred too. I had a really great time!

Most folks who came out had similar displacement backgrounds. Several of us are war survivors who lost our family homes overseas & are far from many family members(my Mom's side is stuck in remote offgrid village) who are still living in our homelands. It was good for our souls to be around fellow POC diaspora. We understand each other better than others do because of similar life experiences from before coming to Canada. We also faced similar struggles/racism when we came to Canada as refugees of wars.

I am looking forward to helping them out more at some future community connecting events & grassroots projects in the near future.

Two informational sheets about Fish Tagine placed side-by-side. The left sheet titled "Ingredients List" lists mackerel, yellow potato, sweet bell pepper, onion, tomato, garlic, parsley, lemon, oil, turmeric, black pepper, and salt. The right sheet, titled "Knowledge," details the stew's Tunisian origins and history. Both sheets have a pale pink background and are framed with a colorful geometric pattern of red, green, and black shapes. At the bottom, there are logos: “iyé”, “crfair”, and “FED”. The image is set against a striped golden-yellow cloth surface.

A photo featuring fish tagine. On the top left, fish pieces are mixed with potatoes in a savory sauce, served in a red and white bowl, steam coming from above. On the top right, another fish dish is shown with yellow and red peppers, garnished with lemon slices, served in a bowl with a blue and white rim. Below, a close up view of the pepper and fish dish, emphasizing fresh herbs and a lemon used as a garnish.
