Local Food for Thought
The sap is rising and already we’re fantasizing about fiddleheads, rhubarb and wild leeks.
But until the crocuses pop we’ll keep stuffing our bags with gourmet delights from these fantastic year-round farmers’ markets:
• Dufferin Grove (Thursday 3 p.m.-7 p.m.)
Fresh breads, sheepmilk cheeses and lamb pies.
• St. Lawrence Market (every Saturday from 5 a.m.)
Ewenity Dairy cheeses, red fife pasta, seafood, spices and flowers.
• The Stop’s Green Barn Farmers’ Market (Saturday 8 a.m.–1 p.m.)
Raw cocoa beans, honey, artisinal crackers, mushrooms and more.
• Regional 'n' Artisanal Food Market at CBC, (monthly until April)
Organic spelt flour, jams, baguettes and local artisan cheeses.
