Summer is making itself felt and the James Bay Market is bringing more sunshine with our line-up of talented local musicians to brighten the day. Each week, you can shop and groove to 3 musical sets played throughout the day.
Saturdays now see a gathering of 50 plus tents bustling with excited vendors with colourful displays of fresh local fruits, vegetables and farm produce along with baked goods, locally brewed beverages, prepared foods and preserves. Our crafters offer you a large selection of art, woodworking, clothing, body care products, jewellery and more!
