Celebrate healthy living at downtown market this weekend

August 9th, 2012

The Downtown Windsor Farmers’ Market holds one special event each month and this month’s event is Healthy Lifestyles Day. Local food not only tastes better, but the nutritional value is higher since the fruits and vegetables are picked at their peak of freshness and come to market within 24 hours.  The market also offers natural and organic food as well as gluten-free and sugar-free baked goods.

Saturday’s activities include:

8 a.m. to 1p.m.

  • FREE bike tune-ups from One Good Earth Cycles
  • FREE dental hygiene check-ups by Tracy Holgate RDH (Registered Dental Hygienist) of Windsor Mobile Dental
  • Information from Bike Friendly Windsor Essex including local trail maps
  • Information from Windsor Youth Centre – donate for the chance to win free cookies!

10 a.m.                                 Karen Morand

10 a.m. to 12 p.m.            Doug Romanek from Nana’s Bakery will be cooking up some tasty, smart-calorie treats prepared with fresh ingredients hand-picked from market vendors.
