National Geographic has recently (April 2012) rated the st Lawrence market here in Toronto "the best food market in the WORLD". what an amazing thing to have right here in our city! So I thought in honour of that I would do a post every weekend about some of the awesome vendors that inhabit the market.
A little history about the St Lawrence Market
There are two major markets in Toronto, Kensington market and St Lawrence market. The SLM has two buildings the north and south. The South Building is host to the main market that is open 5 days a week. The North is the home of the Southern Ontario farmers market on Saturdays and a one of a kind antique market on Sundays. The SLM started out as just the Saturday farmers market in 1803 and today is has become a daily event that the lucky visitors and torontonians get to enjoy!
I am going to focus on the north buildings farmers market for my market series because its very important to Sarah,myself and planet earth to shop and support local farmers!
Next weekend you can look forward to a post about local honey bee farmer Paul from Medowview Honey :)
Love Kristen
