I enjoy learning and sharing that knowledge. Sharing has been in many forms over the years, as a teaching assistant, university lecturer, Pilates instructor, math tutor and just sharing with friends and family. Throughout, summarizing what I have learnt in words has always been there and continues to through blog posts, articles, video and the ever growing forms of content out there!

List of Ottawa farmers markets by day of the week

September 1, 2023August 23, 2025Lani and Norm2

There are more farmers and crafters markets in Ottawa and surrounding areas than I, and I suspect, most people realize.  When I started my journey to get out and start using my car again after COVID restrictions started loosening, my aim was to visit local farmers’ markets in the Ottawa Valley.  I knew there were […]

A visit to the Perth Farmers Market and Stewart Park

Perth, ON is such a pretty little town. There is the beautiful Stewart, Park, one of the 7 wonders of Lanark County, the Tay Canal, the really cute shops along Gore Street, and of course on Saturday mornings the Perth Farmers Market.

A visit to the quaint Wakefield farmer’s market

Wakefield is a quaint historical town in Quebec along the Gatineau River. This post is not about the town however not mentioning the red pedestrian Wakefield covered bridge, the Hull-Chelsea-Wakefield Railway, and the resting place of Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson, would be a disservice. There are a lot of wonderful resources to learn more […]

Treasure of a market, the Alta Vista Farmers Market

August 31, 2023August 23, 2025Lani and Norm2

In early July 2023, I visited the Vankleek Hill Farmers Market and was pleasantly surprised. While it was small, it was compact with a variety of vendors including a vendor selling dog treats, Ruby Treats. My dog is a little fussy when it comes to dog treats but he loved Ruby’s Treats. That’s a story […]

My First Visit to the Ecotay Market

July 2, 2023August 23, 2025Lani and Norm

Canada Day this year proved quite adventurous when it came to farmer’s market visits. Originally the plan was to go to another farmer’s market this Sunday, July 2nd, 2023 but I learned about the Ecotay Market. From what I understand, Ecotay is the name of the business and property. The business is the property for […]
