The Community Resource Centre has been giv­en the opportunity to hold a fundraising barbecue on Satur-day at the Elora Farmers’ Market.

The goal of the barbecue is to raise money to provide children in surrounding com­mu­nities with back-to-school supplies. The centre is hoping to be able to supply backpacks filled with the essentials for 100 local children.

Visitors can enjoy a smash­ed egg sandwich and support the kids in see two organiza­tions working together. The event will be taking place on June 28 from 9am to 1pm at the Elora Farmer’s Market. It is located just east of the Elora General Store, at 15 Mill Street East.

The Elora Farmers’ Market was established three years ago to meet the "buy local buy fresh" desires of the commu­nity.  It has been dubbed “the prettiest market in Ontario” because of its setting by the shores of the Grand River. The market is a place for people to come and meet their neigh­bours while they do their week­ly shopping and munch on something homemade and delectable. More products are to be added this year.

For more information con­tact the Community Re­source Centre at 519-843-7000.
