McMaster gets a Farmers Market
I was very excited this morning to read the top story at McMaster:
An on-campus farmer’s market will debut at McMaster today. Depending on the growing season, the market will run each Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. until mid October. Farm produce will be delivered to the oval in front of University Hall where McMaster students will operate the stands.
Local farms participating are Simpler Thyme in Flamborough, Two Century Farm in Grimsby, and Busy Liz’s Farm Shop in Campbellville. Recipes will be available, as will information on the importance of supporting locally-grown food.
Volunteers to help run the stand are welcome. Those interested can contact the Farmstand Director at farmstand@msu.mcmaster.ca or visit the McMaster Daily News for more information about the project »
