Toronto is fortunate to have access to local food grown on farms not far from the city. Farmers Markets are popping up all over the city. There is always one just down the road.
Tuesday
AppleTree Market
Davisville Ave and Mount Pleasant Rd.
Recently relocating to June Rowlands Park at Davisville and Mount Pleasant, AppleTree Market has been offering the farmers’ market experience to midtown Toronto for the last several years. Hosted spring through fall Tuesdays from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., the market is packed with more than 30 vendors offering organic, naturally raised, and sustainable foods, as well as also plans to feature a new food truck each week.
