Jim Allen entertains. And he is AWESOME! |
I had the chance to drop in to the Dwight Farmers' Market today. It is held every Tuesday, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., on the grounds of Gouldie Park, right beside the Post Office.
Here are some shots of this growing and interesting market venue, well worth the visit.

meet not only the beekeeper, but the bees themselves. Sample the honey. Take some home.

Aches and pains melt away with buckwheat heat. She'll be happy to explain how and why. |

It's called Thinstone, and there is a new store opening soon in Dwight that will be dealing with it. Meanwhile, you can find it here. Interesting, and lovely, and ideal for the cottage or patio. |

How Kind! Rowanwood Farm even brought a water bucket for thirsty poodles... Taffy says 'Thanks" |

Rowanwood also brought veggies, and an awesome crop of fresh garlic...
There were plenty of other vendors, making it a really interesting place to spend some time (and money)
We recommend you add it to your List of Things to Do in Dwight! |
I'm still surprised by the number of vendors, but then there are quite a lot more people in the area during the summer.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the Whitney side of the park- I know there's one in Barry's Bay- but it occurs to me that might be the closest farmer's market for many people spending a week in Algonquin, along the corridor.
