The Collingwood Downtown Farmers’ Market is preparing for its upcoming season at the municipal parking lot located at the corner of Second and Pine Streets in Collingwood, Ontario. The market is working toward its traditional opening around the Victoria Day long weekend in May.
Organized by the Collingwood Downtown Business Improvement Area, the market serves as a hub for local vendors. Recent administrative details indicate that preparations are actively underway for the standard mid-May launch. According to information from Ontario Visited, the season is set to begin on May 16, 2026.
The market typically hosts a full capacity of 70 vendors, providing a range of local goods including produce, baked items, maple syrup, honey, jams, meats, flowers, and various crafts. Once the season officially begins, residents can visit the site on Saturday mornings, with operating hours running from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Sam Ball, coordinator of promotions and special projects with the business improvement area, has previously noted the importance of the market to the downtown area’s vibrant atmosphere.
