Council Invests $100K to Expand Popular Farmer’s Market 
City Council has approved $100,000 in funding through the City’s portion of the Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) to support the expansion of the Mountjoy Farmer’s Market.

Over the past two years, the Mountjoy Farmer’s Market has experienced tremendous growth, attracting more than 50 vendors to the popular Saturday market and prompting plans to expand the current pavilion.

The expansion project is estimated at $250,000. With $100,000 in support from the City, market organizers will actively pursue grant opportunities and building partnerships to secure the remaining funds.

The investment aligns with the goals of the MAT Tax to reinvest in tourism and community-driven projects that contribute to the local economy. The expansion is expected to make room for more vendors, support local entrepreneurs, and provide additional opportunities for cultural and community programming.

The Mountjoy Farmer’s Market currently operates on Saturday mornings, with the facility also available for rent throughout the week and across the season for a variety of events.
