Looking for a great way to cap off the school year? Head to the farmers’ market this Thursday. Shop, eat and relax on the grassy hill of East Lynn Park.
What can you expect this week? There will be wine from both Coyote’s Run and Broken Stone Wineries. School Grown has been tweeting up a storm about their scapes and 100 lbs of lettuce that they harvested just yesterday. And if you’re like me and didn’t know what a scape was, let alone how to cook with it, check out this link for some ideas.
There will also be lots of ready made food options, like loaded baked potatoes from the Borough. And just in time for Canada Day, Fa Real Custom Tees will be selling some of their custom made East York Tee’s.
Also important to know about this week: There is NO FACE PAINTING. However, Kelly and the gang from Face-to-Face Games will have games galore to entertain and stimulate brains young and old. Toronto Public Library will have story-time and a craft activity starting at 4:30 p.m.
And don’t forget, there is a community safety walk starting at 7:00 p.m. with members of the Toronto Police Service. The group will meet at the top of the hill by the water fountain and walk east along Danforth Avenue to Main Street.
