My Local Markets

Mmm doesn't this look so fresh, green, healthy AND delicious? Introducing our new produce vendor Wizard Greens! They are an urban farm in Ottawa that grows beautiful and nutritious micro vegetables in an indoor chemical free environment. They have 6 varieties to choose some that can appeal to all tastes and needs. For those that haven't experimented with micro greens they can be a great way to add nutrition to your foods and add a great crunch. And it looks fancy too. ... These will be growing all winter long and can provide some great immunity and health benefits. I say with this year we should all get on board the micro green train! https://mylocalmarkets.ca/collections/wizard-greens #microgreensoneverything #healthylifestyle #shoplocalottawa #mylocalmarkets #immunitybooster

Here in the Market we love to support those who are doing great things for others. Creations for Cancer was started back in 2015 in an effort to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society as part of a Relay for Life Team. Neighbors and friends donated their old unwanted furniture and it was given new life and sold with all proceeds going toward the fundraising efforts. A few years later, it has become not only a fundraiser but a hobby and passion for it's creator Lynn. Thes...e shelfs are made from unique pieces of wood and repainted which has created a rustic shelf, perfect for showcasing your art and home decor pieces. The proceeds from these shelves through our market will continue to be donated to Cancer Fundraising. https://mylocalmarkets.ca/collections/household-supplies #canadiancancersociety #goodbyecancer #shoplocalottawa #inthemarket

We must have taken about 100 pictures and video's of Payton during the Night Market last Thursday! We really are just so excited about her business Sweet Scrubs. You see Payton is a 13 year old Entrepreneur. She created her first scrub as a gift for her Mother for Mother's Day. She wasn't able to shop (COVID) so she got to work and came up with something she could make herself. ... So Sweet Scrubs was born. We are happy to say she left her first show with no product! We are even more excited to say you can try Payton's Sweet Scrub by ordering directly through her (See her instagram Page for contact info @sweet.scrub_) Or you can now order it directly through the Market for delivery to Ottawa and Surrounding Area's. The Pineapple Scrub is her claim to fame, but she has 4 other scents to choose from Strawberry, Apple Cinnamon, Pumpkin Spice, and Coffee & Vanilla. Payton is by far our youngest vendor partner, and we are so excited to work with her and see her grow. Congrats Payton! https://mylocalmarkets.ca/collections/vendors #entrepreneur101 #girlboss #locallegendinthemaking #yaypayton! #loveNG
