Local Food Week is celebrated across Ontario every year. This year, Local Food Week takes place between June 6 and 12. Farmers’ markets are a great way for visitors to get a true flavour of any area, and lucky for us, our whole area is covered by markets!
Grey County markets boast a wide variety of year-round local products including baked goods, seasonal fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs and cheese, sweeteners and prepared foods. In June, look for locally-grown asparagus, rhubarb and spring greens plus wild harvested foods like fiddleheads and mushrooms to get a true taste of the season. Many of our markets also include crafts, live music, product demos and children's activities. Here’s a list of market dates and times to help you find the one most convenient for you:
- Clarksburg – Wednesdays 3pm to 6pm
