Everything old is new again. Check Our History Link to find out how the arrangement between the City and the Market evolved. It was for the exclusive use of the Market. In a study conducted by Farmers' Markets Ontario and the University of Guelph School of Rural Planning Development, the 94 plus Farmers' Markets in Ontario added over a Billion dollars to the Ontario economy in 1998. They create jobs, encourage additional farm gate sales, and have spun off many new businesses.
Attendance is on the rise.
More and more Markets are opening to offer a very old, and and the same time, very new alternative to buying produce, meats and baked goods. Coming north on Highway 400, take the Dunlop Street turnoff into Barrie. Then follow Dunlop Street to Mulcaster then turn left. The Market, and Barrie City Hall are at the top of the hill.
