Get ready to welcome back Saint Spore! Be sure to try their incredible Jun varieties. (Small-batch fermented herbal teas, with honey – yum!)

Honey’s Ice Cream is also back this week – delicious varieties of vegan ice cream, both in individual and (small) tub size.

And more yummy cold treats are available from Sopsicles Toronto.

Bitter Better also returns this week, with their Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat, and incredible teas.

Our craft brewer this week, is Blood Brothers Brewing.

And more “tacoz” this week! If you haven’t tried “Uno, Dos, Tacoz” yet, now’s the time!

Lovely Cheyenne, of Sundance Harvest, seems very pleased with her plate of momos, from TC Tibetan Momos – hope you enjoyed it Cheyenne! 😍

And more smiles from Deven, of  Casa Shrooms – great to have you back at the market! Casa Shrooms returns on August 7th. 

The Kid’s Craft Fair last week, was a huge success! Ana Karen hopes to do another one later this season – details to follow..
 

Thanks for your support everyone – and hooray for bike lanes!
