Hello Friends of Farmers’ Markets!
This winter, we’re asking for your feedback to help strengthen our markets.  The Greenbelt Farmers’ Market Network (which includes all TFMN markets) invites you to fill out this online survey:  www.canview.com/4065EN/?pw=FMLive
It takes just a few minutes, and everyone who completes the questionnaire has a chance to win $100 worth of market bucks to spend at their favourite farmers’ market! We appreciate your support.
If you have questions you can contact greenbeltfarmersmarketnetwork (at) gmail.com

Great news! No fee increases for farmers’ markets in the recent budget announcements from City Hall.  Again, a huge thank you to all who signed our petitions.  We’re going to hang onto them….Who can say what the future holds?

We’re also very happy that Montgomery’s Inn will remain open, and we urge you to do some holiday shopping at their lovely Wednesday 3-6 pm market, or any of our other great year-rounders. There are many delightful treats ready and waiting for every food lover!

Thanks to all who have supported our petition at markets and online. The signature count is nearing 5,000 and we haven’t stopped collecting (see below). We are still waiting for news of possible fee increases affecting Toronto’s park-based farmers’ markets, and we’ll try to keep you informed of any developments.

In the meantime, the great news is that there are more choices than ever for year-round market shoppers in Toronto. Don’t give up your local eating habit just because the outdoor season has ended; there are farmers’ markets open Mondays (Sorauren), Wednesdays (Montgomery’s Inn in the west and U of T Scarborough (monthly) in the east), Thursdays (Appletree and Dufferin Grove), and Saturdays (Brick Works, Green Barns, and St. Lawrence North) right on through ’til next spring. Have a look at our List of Markets for full details.
