Kerr Village Farmers Market – July 3rd

July 4, 2010

The July 1st Canada Day weekend was a great day for the Kerr Village Farmers Market.  Not only were we supported by fine weather,  we had a large number of visitors from all over Oakville.  Our visitors experienced fresh picked Cherries and Raspberries from the Niagara Peninsula area.

Fresh Ontario potatoes and beans.  Organic Flax from Busy Liz’s farm in Campbellville.  If you are driving north on Guelph Line, be sure to stop at Busy Liz’s fruit stand in Campbellville. She has a large variety of fresh produce and is a wealth of information about healthy eating.  Our entertainment this week was provided by Rob Birmingham and John Restas.  They provided a welcome variety of 60’s though 80’s favorites.  We even had people dancing under the sunshine because the music was so great.  We are looking forward to more fresh cherries and raspberries this week and we will be searching out locally grown Blackberries, beans and cucumbers to ensure that there are plenty avaialble for you to pick up this Saturday July 10th.
