From http://downtownfarmersmarket.ca:

The Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run organization that connects residents of Windsor and surrounding areas to the farmers of Essex County by providing residents with local, fresh and in-season food in an accessible setting. We aim to raise the profile of local food producers and entrepreneurs by giving them a venue in which to sell their goods, while educating the public about the rich agricultural diversity that exists in Essex County.  Through partnerships we work to build a stronger sense of community, restore the positive image of downtown and bring vitality back to our city.

Green Bean Café is happy to announce that we will be at the Downtown Windsor Farmer’s Market every Saturday morning in June from 8AM to 1PM. Last week was our first week and we had a great time meeting new people, chatting with other vendors and enjoying a beautiful summer morning. There were tons of vendors there this past Saturday and a constant crowd of people from 8AM on.

The market is located at the old downtown bus station at 44 University Ave. East and you can find all kinds of other information at the Downtown Windsor Farmer’s Market website. Hope to see you there!
