    Great selection of food and staff. Great place to order food for a family gathering…read more Try the hot food counter it's good for a healthy lunch

    I've been experiencing a lot of frustration, lately, with my local food scene. We live in the heart…read moreof Ontario's best growing country, and yet the "Farmer's Market" is crammed full of sellers who import things from Mexico, Morocco, even from my beloved Willamette Valley in Oregon, 3000 miles away -- all with the inconvenience of cash-only, no ABM/ATM on the premises, and so desperately overcrowded that it often takes 10 minutes to move 5 feet. (And did I mention that it's only available Saturday until noon? And the actual local producers sell out long before then? And that parking thereabouts is a nightmare?) The grocery stores that we've investigated are full of cheap/generic/environmentally unsustainable, with some of the most appallingly aged and limp imported produce I've ever seen -- and all with the customer service attitude of "like it or lump it; who do you think you are, someone special?" Oh yeah, and the supply is inconsistent -- if I find a product that I like, they'll stop carrying it and won't bring it back, even if I'm willing to special-order it by the case. Disheartened, I had pretty much resigned myself to shopping weekly at Whole Foods, an hour away, which (as always) is stocked to the rafters with beautiful organic foodstuffs, nitrite/nitrate-free meats, sustainably-harvested, marine stewardship council-certified wild-caught fish, artisan boutique cheeses, and organic fair-trade shade-grown coffee. (Did I mention that it's an hour away? Not exactly convenient. And that's a lot of driving -- 2 hours worth of carbon emissions per shopping trip.) But coming from Portland, I have food quality standards that I am unwilling to compromise, knowing just how good food can be... Enter Angelino's Market. My darling husband, feeling adventurous, found this gem due to a traffic detour. Locally owned family market, featuring local produce and high quality meats. It's not much to look at on the outside, but get a load of the pics I took inside... it's spotlessly clean, and filled with gorgeous high quality food. Some of my faves: The best fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit juice I've had since I left Portland. On par with what I used to drink daily when I lived in Southern California, where the oranges and grapefruits are grown. Vast and varied meat and cheese deli. They roast their own garlic roast beef in-house -- tender, medium-rare, stuffed with roasted garlic cloves and crusted in fresh herbs. Thinly sliced, it's the only lunch meat I've found in the Guelph area that isn't chock-full of nitrites/nitrates (which prematurely age cells and tissues -- I don't need any help aging, thanks -- and can lead to cancer). It's also utterly delicious. An enormous olive and antipasti bar. With several different iterations of anchovies and sardines. Yum. A large meat section -- they cut and grind their own meat daily, and it's lean and red and very appealing. A bakery section that features local bakery bread, gorgeous focaccia pizzas, and some of the loveliest pastry confections I've ever seen. The best produce I've seen in the province. Period. Friendly, attentive, responsive staff -- I spent half an hour gabbing with Rob, the meat department manager, who was knowledgeable, clued-in as to the health benefits and superior flavor of sustainably-produced, local fresh meats, and held forth in intelligent discourse about production methods (he's produced his own in the past, and is currently raising free-run chickens). So, for those of you who love good food, good news! I'll see you at Angelino's. Just save me some orange juice.

    One of my favourite things to do on a Saturday morning when I'm at the cottage is visit the OSFM…read more Located in the heart of Owen Sound's bustling Downtown district, it's the place to be (if you're cool...like me) on a Saturday morning, especially in the Summer. While the market runs year-round, there are less vendors out during the winter season because the actual building they run the market out of is very tiny. The St. Lawrence market puts this place to shame size-wise, but this market has a more intimate feel, which is what buying local is all about, isn't it? In the Summer time, vendors line the entrance way and take up some of the parking lot (which can get quite busy/completely full with cars. Have patience..) which adds even more options for potential dinner(s). Tip: arrive as early as you can before everything runs out! They have: -A little coffee place that also makes breakfast sandwiches and small stuff like that -Organic and non-organic fruits and veggies -Organic meats including sausages (spicy, honey garlic, plain) lamb, beef, poultry, venison, bacon etc -Yummy goods baked by Farmer's wives -this is the real deal! (I recommend the German apple cake from the woman inside towards the back of the building, the tarts that are sold outside are also good too) -All sorts of plants (one guy there sells GIANT lillies) -Beeswax candles -Pottery, sculptures, art work, knick-knacks, etc -Sometimes there's a guy there who sells $20 bottles of olive oil who is a really good sales-pitcher. The oil does taste really good though. When you're finished over here, take a nice stroll downtown and check out some of the bookstores, or sit by the ravine in the shade with a coffee.

    Cute farmers market Saturday mornings year around. Free parking in lot right by market or just…read morebehind. Items for sale like fresh produce, meat and poultry. I got some maple syrup and roasted coffee here. Also some artisan stalls for jewellery and art. In terms of things to eat, there is a place to get drip coffee and breakfast sandwiches, a place to get espresso based drinks and a stall selling delicious Syrian food. Items tend to sell out later on during the morning.
