Local producers of fruit, vegetables, meat, arts and crafts are bringing their goods to Lansdowne Park. From 8:00 am to 3:00 pm each Sunday until the end of October. Bring the family to enjoy breakfast in the open air and purchase locally produced seasonal goods.
The promise of the Ottawa Farmers' Market is that all goods sold by the vendors who participate are produced by those vendors. This ensures that the customer wanting to buy locally is able to and is purchasing the freshest meat and produce available while supporting local producers.
The market is located in Parking Lot #4 between the North side of the Aberdeen Pavilion,
the East side of the Horticultural Bldg. and Holmwood Avenue.
Once again this year, we will be moving about 100 metres east and a little north of our current location (A) to make way for SuperEx.
