Come out to the Farmers' Market Monday! 3-7pm
Great summer goodies starting to flow in (and the last of the spring asparagus and fiddleheads) - come out and see (and taste) for yourself. Music at the market is back - This week we have Rob Joy (of Alistair Ant fame) playing music for kids & family from 5pm to 6pm and Lutia playing Celtic Harp from 3pm to 4:30pm We will also start our workshop programming with a visit from The Backyard Urban Farm Company. BUFCO will be conducting a container gardening demonstration at 4:00-4:30pm and again at 5:00-5:30pm. The workshop will show how easy it is to get growing. All you need is a pot, a little soil and a seed or two. We would also like to welcome back Corry Oullette as the Farmers' Market Assistant Manager - She's already doing so much and we're happy to have her on board again! Our Community Cannery is A Small Wonder!! Our Community Cannery has recently been named one of the 7 Small Wonders of Canada by The Small Change Fund.
