Two months of eggs, pancakes and sausages at the Edgewood Farms Pancake Breakfast

The past two months have been an onslaught of glorious breakfasts with the Edgewood Farms Pancake Breakfast. The event ran for almost two whole months, serving everyone present at the event with huge servings of pancakes, eggs and sausages. It was a blast to wake up and be served with great meals.

The attendees of the event said that they couldn’t wait to come again the next day and again, be served with a sumptuous meal to start the day. The sumptuous pancake breakfast was held at the 7th Concession Rd. Addison Brockville ON.

Of course, the event was not just about breakfast. The event also featured tours and visits to the Pancake House and Museum for all the guests. The guests absolutely enjoyed the tours and got exciting giveaways to remind them of the great memories they made at the event. Entertainment was also present at the event to make an amazing celebration even more remarkable. From the 26th of February straight through the 24th of April, guest performers gave enjoyment and delight to the attendees. Everyone had a great time with performances from the likes of Rebekka Paige, Kathy and Friends, Just Us, County Road, Good Tyme Country, The Blue River Band, Tapping Out Party, The Girl With A Guitar, Crossroads, Pine Hollow and so much more.
