Farmers' Markets

Farmers' Markets offer freshly picked in-season produce at its peak in flavour and nutrition, as well as other wonderful products. It is a great way to support your local farmers, learn about foods grown in your area, and catch up with friends and neighbours while stocking up on local goods.
