September things….
Fresh locally grown ginger. You’ll not likely find this in a brick and mortar grocery store – only at a farmers’ market. Aldergrove Organic Farm has been growing for several years. It is young and not cured has an amazing zing to it. Use it fresh, pickle it, store in fridge wrapped in waxed cloth product or freeze it and shave off what you need as you go! Don’t be ginger and try some while in season or before they sell out – it will come for several weeks.
August things…
August begins the bounty time for farmers’ markets and TBFM is no exception. It’s all coming in nicely, weather cooperating thus far. Know that climate change does effect our farmers and depending on their location. Know that shopping at any and all markets supports the Ontario agricultural economy. Feeling grateful and privileged to be able to run this independent (not City run) farmers’ market for the community.

July at the farmers’ market
Good things arriving from farm to tables! Vegetables and fruit are growing despite this crazy weather Ontario is having – it takes the right amount of rain & sun to produce the best crops. Our food artisans continue to knock it out of the park. It’s just going to get better as the weeks go on! Hope to see you on Tuesdays 3-7pm rain or shine.
