Over 120 specialty merchants and vendors await you at Toronto's premier market at Front and Jarvis Streets. In the centre of the historic Old Town Toronto, close to the hub of today's downtown, sit three buildings that have served as Toronto's social centre, City Hall and market place throughout the City's history. The tradition of a Saturday Farmers' Market in Toronto began on this site in 1803. Over the years, the market has survived and thrived through many changes, including the Great Fire of 1849 and several reconstructions of the building.
Throughout the year, over 50 (and in summer, even more) Ontario growers and producers bring their seasonal produce to the Saturday Market.
Experienced shoppers get there for the 5 a.m. opening to buy the freshest food in town.
