Whether you participated in Dry January or not, maybe you just want to try something new. ✨

We have some tips for some alcohol-free substitutes: for those of us considering a break from booze, New Brunswick has delicious and satisfying options like non-alcoholic craft beer and mocktails with wild blueberry or maple twists. 🍸🍁

Are you celebrating today? Toast (alcohol-free or not... January is over tonight, after all 😉) and tag a friend who joined you. Here's to feeling great in February. 🍻❄️

Congratulations to anyone who did finish out Dry January 2026! 🥳🍾

New Brunswick winter comfort, a hot bowl of creamy seafood chowder on a chilly day... did I just repeat myself? 🥣❄️

Cozy up with this hearty classic, as simple as it is delicious (and perfect for chasing away the January chill) — there are so many fresh NB flavours to choose from: Atlantic salmon, haddock, scallops, lobster... 🦞🦪

Here's an open-ended recipe to get you started; almost every ingredient can be sourced directly from home here in New Brunswick:

Ingredients:
1lb/450g haddock + 1lb/450g Atlantic salmon, lobster, scallops or any combination of your favourite NB seafood
1/4lb bacon (about 5-6 slices)
4c fish stock (chicken stock works, too)
1 large potato, peeled
1 small onion
1 large carrot
2 stalks celery
1 tsp dried thyme leaves
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2c (125ml) 35% whipping cream
Salt and pepper, to taste

Cooking:
• Chop bacon and cook in a large saucepan until crisp. Remove bacon and drain pan, but do not wash. Add back ~1 Tbsp of bacon fat.
• Add diced onion, carrot and celery to bacon fat in pan. Season with thyme while sautéing on medium heat for 3-5 minutes, until slightly softened or with just a touch of browning. Sprinkle with flour and cook gently another 3 or 4 minutes, then add fish or chicken stock and bring to a boil.
• Add chopped potatoes. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Add salt and pepper to taste, then add chopped haddock and cook 5 minutes. Add remaining seafood and continue cooking 3 more minutes, or until all seafood is tender and cooked through. Finally, stir in whipping cream and cooked bacon.
• Garnish with optional parsley, green onion or extra chopped bacon.

Who's making this tonight? 😋 Share your twists in the comments or tag us in your chowder photos.

Upgrade your hug in a mug: Pure New Brunswick maple syrup swirled into rich hot chocolate! 🍁🍫

Made with NB's world-famous maple tapped right here at home, go ahead and top it with hot cream and marshmallows for that extra cozy factor — after all, we wouldn't want it to go cold. 😉⛄️

How do you like yours — extra maple or maybe with a pinch of sea salt? Share your version!

Looking Back at the 2025 New Brunswick Hort Congress in Fredericton. 🌱

Hundreds of NB producers came together last month to sprout new ideas and build fresh relationships with fellow farmers and horticulture lovers — featuring keynote presentations by Peter Chapman, Shaun Haney and John B. Fletcher (to name just a few), not to mention the plenary sessions and trade show.

From technical insights to the lively social mixer showcasing NB products, it was a huge success that strengthened ties in our horticulture community.

Thank you to everyone who joined; your passion grows NB every day! 💗🔥

Who's already excited for 2027? Tag a fellow producer below.

Winter comfort starts with New Brunswick acorn squash! 🧡 Full of flavour and perfect for soups, roasting, or stuffing. That bumpy skin might look tricky, but we’ve got you. Here’s how to prep it like a pro:

1️⃣ Cut off the stem and bottom for a stable base.
2️⃣ Slice the squash in half lengthwise.
3️⃣ Scoop out seeds and strings (save seeds to roast if you like!).
4️⃣ Slice or dice for your recipe.

Now you’re ready to roast, stuff, or simmer your squash into a delicious winter meal. 🍲✨
