NEW Evening Farmer’s Market Starts Tomorrow!
Ok, here it is!
Somebody (a genius) at the Sarnia-Lambton Business Development Corporation had the BRILLIANT idea to try out an evening farmer’s market! All of my eat local dreams come true starting tomorrow (June 25. 2015) evening! AN EVENING FARMER’S MARKET, folks! I could just scream with excitement! I can’t think of a better way to spend every Thursday evening with my family… a nice walk under the Bluewater Bridge, kids can visit the playground (and eventually the splashpad!) and feed the fish at the Bluewater Anglers hatchery, maybe the occasional bridge fries or ice cream treat, and best of all be able to buy some fresh, delicious, healthy, REAL, local produce and foods. YES! YES! YES! Count me there. Runs every Thursday throughout the summer from 4 -8 pm.
