There’s no time like the present to support our farms and buy local food!

The first Saturday of August is Food Day Canada, a grassroots effort to inspire Canadians to shop, cook, and dine Canadian — and now August 4-11 is Farmers’ Market Week!

“The month of August is the height of the growing season and markets are brimming with local food, products, and community spirit,” shares Farmers’ Markets Ontario. “Farmers’ Market Week is a prime opportunity to connect Ontario shoppers with farmers and producers who work endlessly to deliver delicious produce from farm to plate. Show your support for local agriculture and the local economy.”
