The Town of Ajax and Community Care Durham are hosting a weekly winter market every Wednesday in March 2026 to help residents access fresh groceries. The market is held at the Ajax Community Centre in Ajax, Ontario, and focuses on providing healthy food options during the winter season.
The market operates from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in the main lobby of the community centre. Visitors can buy fresh fruits, vegetables, and seasonal meal kits designed to make healthy eating easier for local families.
This initiative is part of a mobile food program that travels to different areas to make sure fresh food is available in high-traffic community hubs. By using the community centre, the program ensures that residents can pick up what they need while visiting the facility for other activities.
Organizers note that the weekly event is weather-dependent. If there is a winter storm or dangerous travel conditions, the market may be cancelled, so residents should check for local updates on days with poor weather.
The partnership between the municipality and the non-profit group aims to support food security in the region. These weekly events provide a direct way for people to get the supplies they need in a convenient, central location.
