GRANPA'S TRIP TO THE COLLINGWOOD FARMER'S MARKET JULY 2014

Summer brings day trips and outings with Barb, kids and grandkids. So on a weekend jaunt to Collingwood, I visited the Collingwood Farmer's Market. Collingwood is a community North-west of Toronto on Georgian Bay-Lake Huron. Up the 400 and through Barrie, Collingwood is a sweet community near Blue Mountain for winter skiing and summer sports and shopping.
I did not need to buy much so had a good look around. Of course Barb snapped pictures.
Yes, Barb bought some butter tarts for the oncoming barbecue with the kids.
There are always friendly vendors so Barb asked these ladies if they had a picture taken with me she would buy their hot sauce.

They make the hot sauce in Trinidadian style. They have a booth every week at the market. Lisa Mendoza and her friend were very nice and were very kind to accommodate us. Their hot sauce is JD Boss Pepper Sauce. Check out their website. www.jdbosspeppersauce.com
Walking around and exploring the other non-food booths is Barb's choice.
A local photographer-George Czerny has written a book and photographed the old shipyards of Collingwood. Barb bought a couple of cards from him. Good captures of the shipyards! And record of a piece of  Ontario history.




Barb bought some sausage for the barbecue later in the day.
It was a fun start to the our Saturday. There was a musician playing adding some ambiance to the market.
Hum-was there anything else I needed.
