Our Story

Rooted in Local Food, Community, and Connection

Growing With Our Community

Withrow Park Farmers’ Market has been bringing local food and community together in Toronto’s east end since 2006. What began as a neighbourhood farmers’ market has grown into a weekly gathering place where people can shop from local farmers and food makers, connect with their neighbours, and spend time together in Withrow Park.

At the Heart of Withrow Park

More Than a Market

For us, the market has always been about more than what’s on the table. It’s about knowing where our food comes from, supporting the people who grow and make it, and creating a welcoming space where our community can come together.


Each season, we work to strengthen those connections through local food, community programming, live music, family activities, and partnerships with organizations across our neighbourhood.

What Guides Us

Our Mission

To create a vibrant, welcoming market that supports local food producers, strengthens our community, and connects people with the food they eat and the people behind it.
