Thornbury Farmer's Market
After that beautiful Day Lily garden we visited last Sunday, we headed for the Thornbury Farmer's Market, held downtown on a patch of grass next to the Town Hall. We had never been here before, and we found a number of interesting vendors.
This is the Thornbury Canada 150 mural, celebrating everything local. If you look closely you'll see there are lots of apples in the tree.
There weren't any fresh veggies yet, but there were flowers and 'green' garlic (not quite mature).
There were both honey and maple syrup. We've been to the Miner's maple sugar bush, so we know this is good!
They've also acquired a popcorn popper, so they're now selling maple-flavoured popcorn. Delicious!
There were a number of craft vendors, these ones with wood products.
And a stained glass artist too.
These two guys provided musical background while we wandered around.
I was also pleased to see the local Bruce Trail Club had an information both. Good stuff! I hope they got lots of inquiries.

ReplyDeleteNice looking turned bowls -- and music too.
ReplyDeleteI like the Thornbury Canada mural. Seeing all that maple syrup and honey has me contemplating raiding the fridge before I go to bed. Farmer markets are always interesting with their many crafts, innovations, and ideas. Nice to get out and see all those things and be a part of the community events
ReplyDeleteI love places like this!☺
ReplyDeleteThat would have been a wonderful place to shop. I use to cut out wooden ducks and roosters. That was a long time ago. They had a good variety of thing for their market.
