Station Street Farmer Market a hit.

I went down to the Station Street Farmers Market to help publicize this new Wednesday location and to refresh my supply of local greens. In case you don't know, the market goes from 3pm to 7pm.

I always wonder what the first day of a new market will be like. It's a bit like inviting friends to a party and wondering if anyone is going to come!

It was busy! The vendors I spoke only had good things to say about this new DTES location.

Having the market in the area will increase accessibility of local produce for service providers, residents and restaurants too.

The market is looking for sponsors to support the Station Street Hospitality tent so that those who are unemployed or underemployed can have a place to chat, enjoy a cup of coffee or eat some local fruit and vegetables.
