Information about Farmers' Markets and Farm Gate Sales:
Farmers' markets have been listed as an essential service by the Ontario government.  The Haliburton County Farmers' Market Association is working closely with their vendors, the Health Unit, the local municipal governments, and Farmers' Markets Ontario to put safety protocols in place for this year's market season.  Keep an eye on the Haliburton County Farmers' Market home page for updates regarding the coming season.  Another great way to access locally produced food is at the farm gate.  Check out our list of food producers who sell product at their farm gate:
