Pickering Farmers' Market
The Pickering Farmers’ Market will run on Thursdays, 3:00pm to 7:00pm, from June 25 through October 8, 2009, in the east parking lot located behind the arena of the Pickering Recreation Complex building, located at 1867 Valley Farm Road in Pickering.
After a successful pilot project in 2008, the Durham West Arts Centre is proud to host and facilitate this event celebrating locally grown food and locally produced creative talent for the second year in a row. We believe that sustainability is more than a trend, and culture means more than what’s onstage. To this end, we are producing this community gathering place as a way to promote healthy living in a creative environment.
The market will feature local farmers and food producers, as well as highlighting local artisans, crafters, musicians and creative people. Our goal is to promote the vibrant, sustainable lifestyle that living and working in Durham represents.
