Market Notes

Have you seen our new sandwich boards on the streets yet? Queen/Gorevale, Queen/Shaw and up at the market area. Community members Martha and Connor of www.greeninghomes.com, donated the plywood, paint and hardware to build these babies, four in total! So, you see there are many ways to contribute/volunteer with the market! Connor @GreeningHomes is an uber talented fella. Big huge thank you! Not to forget, Mike and Norine for helping me paint the background sunny yellow too!

Big thanks to Nadegé and County General for allowing us to store the signs locally when not in use on Tuesdays.

Market is always on TUESDAYS 3-7pm Rain or Shine
AT DUNDAS WEST & SHAW ST. (google 1053 Dundas West)
Visit www.tfmn.ca for listing of all Farmers Markets in Greater Toronto.

VENDOR LINEUP IS FULL FOR 2014. Inquiries will not receive an immediate response. Thank you for your patience.

If anyone noticed, our winter was particularly hard and long this past. In response, produce is coming in a little slower this season. Some farmers are saying a few weeks. Please use our 'In Season' as a guide only, because climate change, is changing things up. Things are still good and there's plenty of food at the tables to bring home to the hearth!

Interested in volunteering at market? Volunteering for the Farmers Market gives you the opportunity.....
• To learn where your food comes from
• Get to know some of the producers
• Discover local food and how to eat seasonally
• Join a dedicated group of volunteers who care about what they eat & enjoy some outdoor park time.

SHIFTS: help vendors load in 2pm to 3:30pm / help vendors load out 6:30pm to 7:45pm. The tasks vary, but there are also other ways to help outside of market days and market season. Drop us a line.
