A weekday evening farmers’ market is being planned for Downtown Windsor.
The Midtown Farmers’ Market will be held every Thursday evening from 4-7pm in the parking lot immediately adjacent to Rino’s Kitchen & Ale House.
Organizers say the market is designed to be a neighbourhood option for farm-fresh produce. It’s also designed to encourage many from the Midtown neighbourhood to walk down and enjoy the offerings.
Not familiar with the term Midtown for a neighbourhood of Windsor? Organizers use the Midtown name to describe an area of downtown around where the market will take place — 131 Elliot Street West — a block from both Wyandotte and Ouellette, in an part of town many identify as being Downtown Windsor.
Organizers say Monica Brandner will be the featured farmer vendor with a wide variety of organic and pesticide-free seasonal produce, preserves, honey, cheeses and more. Bradner Farms will also sell weekly “Food Crates” suitable for 2-4 people and packed with healthy vegetables. Crates can be ordered for $30.
The market will also feature a rotating offering of crafters and artists as vendors and neighbouring Rino’s Kitchen will be open for dinner and drinks. Pop in for dinner or simply for a pint of craft beer.
The first Midtown Farmers’ Market will begin on Thursday May 29th and run until early October.
