It's the Last Market of 2015!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for a wonderful market season! This week is the last SWEFM of 2015, and we encourage you to stop by to wish our vendors, volunteers and buskers a happy winter. The market will be full of fresh produce, baking and crafts as always, so for the last time this year, spend some time outside with your family, friends and great food!

Join us here on the "Market Fresh Sheet" every Tuesday to see what's fresh and happening at your favourite farmers' market!
