WELLINGTON NORTH –The Wellington North Farmers’ Market is making plans to open for its 11th season on June 18.
The Wellington North Farmers’ Market is a weekly market, hosted at the Victory Community Centre (320 King St. E., Mount Forest), that provides local vendors an opportunity to market farm and agriculture products.
The Farmers’ Market also serves as an outlet to stimulate public interest in and increase consumption of local products.
The Farmers’ Market is primarily for the sale of food (meat, fish, poultry, eggs, butter, fruits and vegetables, etc.); horticultural products (flowers, shrubs, plants, etc.); and other products such as home baked goods, preserves, home-made crafts and wood products.
“There are so many reasons why buying local makes sense,” said Wellington North economic development officer Robyn Mulder.
“There is also significant peace of mind in knowing where our food comes from. Ask questions and enjoy the experience at the Wellington North Farmers’ Market.”
“The Farmers’ Market provides a real connection between farmer and consumer,” Mulder added.
The Wellington North Farmers’ Market will once again be held on Saturday mornings from 8:30am to noon in the parking lot at the Victory Community Centre.
The Wellington North Farmers’ Market is now accepting applications for vendors for its 2024 season.
Interested vendors can contact Mulder at the Township of Wellington North, visit simplyexplore.ca/farmers-market.html.
