Club Monaco on Bloor Street is changing the way you may think of a farmers' market. It has brought together local favourites: Parts & Labour which is offering a white fish and quinoa salad, Boxcar Social artisan coffees, Bake Shoppe homemade sweet treats, Philips Ice Pops gourmet fresh fruit and herb ice pops, and floral bouquets from Sweet Woodruff - to create an upscale farmers' market in the city at the corner of Bloor Street and Avenue Road.
There is limited seating, but if you manage to score a chair - it's a great spot to stop and rest your feet from all the walking and shopping along Mink Mile, enjoy a little coffee break and of course people watch. I picked up an ivy plant to bring a little fresh greenery into my kitchen.
The market will be open until mid-October, and you can enjoy it seven days a week, weather permitting. To learn more or to double check rain dates follow @ClubMonaco on Twitter and use #CMMarket .
NOTE: This post was meant to have posted in early September ... but with the blog and website overhaul it fell through the seams. Though most of the vendors are no longer there .. I noticed as I drove by today (Oct. 5) that the cafe part is still set up. So if you get a chance pop by and enjoy the last of the outdoor patio and greenery display;or pick up a hot beverage to go and keep your hands warm while you shop.

I do like outdoor markets and a hot beverage is ideal for fall weather.

Pretty pedicure!! You look so relaxed and at peace with yourself. You've come a long way, baby! I am always so envious of your "city" things. When we move, I'm hoping to be nearer to all the things you've inspired me with - markets, unique shops, amazing things to discover. As it is, I am only discovering how unique and funny cows can be.
ReplyDeleteDearest Celia,
ReplyDeleteWow, you look so posh in your perfect outfit! Oh what a show such cut flowers and greenery display! You look very happy sweet friend and when I read Bloor Street, I thought of the ROM in that area.
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
