“Flat Out Food is constantly trying to introduce people to ingredients, places, and new flavours that they may not normally get to experience,” says Adrian Halter, the series’ producer and director. “Our series showcases the amazing people behind the food that is grown and shared on the Prairies. We are so grateful for the opportunity to shine a spotlight on their stories across Canada.”
Hosted by journalist and author Jenn Sharp and inspired by her 2020 book, Flat Out Delicious: Your Definitive Guide to Saskatchewan’s Food Artisans, Flat Out Food is a love letter to Saskatchewan. “My love for Saskatchewan is deeply rooted in the food we grow here and how we share it with each other,” explained Sharp. “My wish is that the stories we share on Flat Out Food ignite a drive within our viewers to learn more about local food, where and how to source it and why it all matters.”
With six episodes coming to Citytv, Season Four follows Sharp as she visits places such as an on-farm butcher shop, a pulse snack processing plant and an apple orchard. Sharp increases her knowledge of the local food economy by working in a malting house with Saskatchewan’s only craft maltster and joining Indigenous elders to learn about traditional foraging in the boreal forest in northern Saskatchewan.
Season four of Flat Out Food premieres February 28 at 10 pm CST. A new episode airs weekly until April 3 with the season finale.
Flat Out Food was filmed in several Saskatchewan locations during the summer and fall of 2023. It is produced by HalterMedia Inc. in association with Rogers Sports & Media, with assistance from the Canada Media Fund and is made possible through the Feature Film and Television Production Grant from Creative Saskatchewan.
