The largest producer-based farmers’ market in Eastern Ontario, with over 100 vendors offering produce, baked goods and crafts.

Come purchase vegetables, honey, meat, sauces, cheese, and other goods from local producers in rural Ottawa. The market was founded in 1994 by local residents Carolyn Seabrook and Andrew Harkness. Carolyn sold Andrew on the idea of a farmers’ market in her family’s vacant barn, and together they launched the project.
