Today is day 2 of converting the blog (you’ll see no changes here, yet) so it’s busy times here. The conversion kept me up until 2:00AM (because I was having so much fun, in truth) and I was out of bed at 7:00. The dog and I went for a walk and then I took a quick spin to the farmers market to get some leeks and to help inspire/ remind me why we work on this project. I’m getting excited to geek out!
The Brickworks is a reclaimed industrial area that time forgot and has been converted into this amazing community space that hosts, amongst other things, a year-round market.
The market has a new website that’s just launched today. It includes information on different food regions in Ontario, their vendors, principles and more. It’s awfully neat, check it out here.
It looks beautiful and vast. How was the selection?
Dana, it is indeed big. About 20 vendors (maybe more) which is a lot for this time of year. In the summer, it’s massive. Lots of hiking and family stuff too. Parking can be tough and prices can be a little steep but if you keep your eyes open you can come out well. The biggest advantage, to me, is the selection. There are a lot of greens there today which is pretty phenomenal for small farming this time of year….
