Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market opens April 2

Signaling the start of spring, the Downtown Windsor Business Improvement Association (DWBIA) opens the beloved Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market four weeks early, with the 2022 season running from April 2 to December 10.

The Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market celebrates its highly-anticipated seventh season on Pelissier Street and Maiden Lane, and will be home to an astounding 60+ full and part-time produce, food and artisanal vendors, not to mention occasional vendors too.

“It’s what we consider the welcome gateway to the spring and summer season,” said Market Manager, Steve Green, of the rain-or-shine event. “The Market was a much-loved event before the pandemic, and was a symbol of hope and recovery over the last two years. It’s a place for vendors and entrepreneurs to have a space to work and contribute, giving visitors and residents access to locally grown, farm fresh products.”

“The Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market has always been, and will always be, an integral part of the urban/farm linkage, and a place where people are better informed and provided healthier food choices,” said DWBIA chair Brian Yeomans. “It’s why we’ve decided to extend the season from 33 to 37 weeks. The market not only provides a wonderful venue for community members socialization, it’s an important facet of the revitalization of the core.”
