Canada Beef wants to help you Eat, Write, Retreat...Again!

Here at Canada Beef Inc, we love bloggers. We love you because you tell the story from your side of the table, sharing with us your amazing recipes, your beautiful photos and your feedback on all that makes Canadian Beef great.  Talented bloggers help Canadian Beef shine, and we’re excited to return the favour!

We had so much fun last year, we’ve once again partnered with Eat, Write, Retreat, the fabulous food blogging conference in Washington DC to create three scholarships for Canadian bloggers to attend. Read all about the excellent adventures our scholarship winners had last year here.

Eat, Write, Retreat is an intensive, hands-on weekend designed to help food bloggers take their work to the next level. Workshops in the culinary arts, creative writing, food styling and photography are interspersed with dynamic dining events, demonstrations and valuable networking sessions. The event is all-inclusive which means a scholarship provides access to all programs and events, as well as luxury hotel accommodations and all the scrumptious food and drink you can fit into a weekend. Just a little “Thank You” from all of us at Canada Beef.

Read on for complete details on how to enter. The first scholarship will be awarded on Monday, February 13^th, and then the following two Mondays no later than 4pm ET. The sooner you enter, the better your chances of winning. So get a mooooove on and good luck!
