As communities developed and transportation improved, waves of newcomers arrived, bringing memories of foods, beverages, and traditions they had known, which were almost impossible to implement in their new homeland. They discovered instead how to use native plants for many of their needs. Community events and institutions developed to serve religious, social, and economic needs from agricultural and temperance societies to Womens Institutes, from markets and fairs to community meals and celebrations.</p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Dorothy Duncan was the Toronto Women's Culinary Network's Woman of the Year in 2004, and in 2006 she was chosen by the Ontario Hostelry Institute to receive the Gold Award for Media and Publishing. <i>Nothing More Comforting: Canada's Heritage Food</i> was published in 2003 to wide acclaim. <i>Canadians at Table </i>won the Cuisine Canada and University of Guelph Culinary Book Gold Award in 2007.
