| Fresh produce will now be available from the new Lakeview Farmers’ Market starting Sunday, June 21st. The new market offers an online pre-order and curbside pick-up program.
Organizers have sourced vendors with organic or sustainably grown local produce and small batch products found within a 150 km radius of Mississauga. Vendors who re-sell produce purchased at food terminals or wholesale outlets will not be allowed.
According to Lakeview Farmers’ Market organizer Ian Raymond, “Our focus is locally grown and sourced healthy food, organic and artisanal products that provide an income opportunity for local farmers, producers and artisans. We are a small market that will evolve over time, selecting premium producers who meet our market guidelines and standards of Farmers’ Markets Ontario.”
“To ensure health and safety, Peel Public Health officials have approved a pre-order and curbside pick-up program. We look forward to a walk-up market in the near future.” said Diane LaPointe, interim Executive Director with CreativeHub 1352. |
