CANADA – Residents, management, and staff of All Seniors Care Living Centres are happy to announce that their 2022 Tomato and Wine Festival will take place on Thursday, September 22, 2022, at 34 retirement communities across the country.<\/p>\n

Think of it as \u201cLa Tomatina\u201d with a Canadian twist.<\/p>\n

\u201cLa Tomatina\u201d- the yearly Spanish tomato-throwing festival that attracts tens of thousands to the tiny town of Bu\u00f1ol, Valencia – inspired All Seniors Care to create their own version of \u201cthe world\u2019s largest food fight\u201d so that residents in their senior living communities could join the fun.<\/p>\n

A much anticipated, senior-friendly simulation will see revellers catapult red beanbags tomatoes at targets made using images of management staff.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis festival has really been a labour of love\u201d, says Hannah Silver, VP Health & Wellness and one of the architects of the Tomato and Wine Festival. \u201cSeniors at each of our residences planted the seedlings, tended the young plants, and watched them ripen. The most challenging thing was not eating all the tomatoes before the festival! Everyone\u2019s excited.\u201d<\/p>\n

A fusion of traditional and non-traditional activities produces the ultimate celebration of the humble fruit. Sip your way through Spain during a travelogue. Join a Chef\u2019s presentation that showcases tomatoes planted and tended by residents. Enjoy Spanish wine and sangria tastings, and live entertainment. Finish the day with a screening of a box office favourite, Fried Green Tomatoes.<\/p>\n

The unusual fiesta is expected to bring crowds of residents, ready for some laugher and good times.<\/p>\n
