The Original + Iconic St Lawrence Market Food Tour.

The Simcoe Farmers Market is more than just a place to shop — it’s a community gathering spot where good things and good friends meet. Every week, locals come together to catch up with neighbours, enjoy friendly conversations, and shop for fresh, local products in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Since opening in the winter of 1980, our market has been home to passionate vendors and loyal customers. What started with a few dedicated sellers has grown into a thriving year-round market with more than 30 vendors, with up to 20 local farmers bringing in fresh, seasonal produce.

<p>Hiya neighbour!&nbsp;<br /><br />We understand you&rsquo;re busy and don&rsquo;t always get to your favourite local wineries before they close. That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;ve introduced Neighbours Night. Every Thursday, London Born Wines will be open until 8 P.M to allow the local neighbourhood to come visit us for a cheeky glass of wine, a cold pint and some casual games. And since we&rsquo;re being neighbourly, all glasses of wine are $2 off and pints are $1 off. So bring your friends, nip out by yourself for a bit or pile up the kids and and finish the day off right; at London Born Wines!</p>
