This weekend is the Canmore Folk Festival. The music lineup is always great and the food truck lineup is pretty good, too! Hopefully, there will also be great weather. For those who are attending, have fun! For those who are not attending, I've got you covered. I've rounded up some music you can listen to, by artists who have been featured at Folk Fest. Not interested in the music? I've got some recipe books picked out for you. Not just any recipe books though. These recipes are based on some of the great food trucks that can be found at the Folk Fest. Enjoy! ~Marie~
