Seedy Saturday

Seedy Saturday is the unofficial start to spring here in Toronto. This year it will be held at a new location, the Wychwood Green Barns, right after the Saturday morning farmers' market.

Here's a slide show of photos from an incredibly successful Seedy Saturday 2009--a record crowd. ( Have patience and wait for it to load.)

Every day is a good food day

As the solstice approaches and the days darken, it may seem as if the season of peaches and berries and tomatoes is far off. But Dufferin Grove Farmers Market runs throughout the year, and what better way to count the days and weeks and months until peak harvest season than with a gorgeous Dufferin Grove Market calendar.

Featuring the photos of Laura Berman and others, along with a behind the scenes tour of some of the market farms, the calendar includes delicious recipes from the talented vendors and market cooks.

2009 calendars are only $15 each, plus $5 postage and handling for mail orders, including tax.

Calendars are available at the Dufferin Park rinkhouse café, at markets on Thursdays December 11th and 18th and Tuesday the 23rd (special holiday schedule!), and by mail order. Quantities are limited.

To place mail orders, write to market@dufferinpark.ca.
