The market runs every Thursday 3-7, June 5 to October 9. The market is a joint venture between Farmers’ Markets Ontario (in charge of vendors/farmers) and the volunteers from the Danforth East Community Association (in charge of kids’ activities, local business/grower popups, community booths, special events like Pride and Bike Day, outreach, social media, and the market volunteer squad that keeps it all running!)

Kidpreneurs
Are you between the ages of 6-14 and have a cool business idea? Do you want to learn how to sell your homemade product? Then the Kidpreneur Program at the East Lynn Farmers’ Market is for you!
The Kidpreneur Program will give kids the opportunity to gain experience being a vendor and selling their own goods at the East Lynn Farmers’ Market in East Lynn Park. The program will run on select Thursdays from 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm between July – August. The cost to participate is $10.00. Children can apply individually or as a team. There can only be a maximum of 3 kids per team.
Please note this opportunity is intended for children who wish to create and sell their products, and not for established businesses that have children as their brand’s ambassadors.

Live Music
Every week we have a different musician busking at the market, representing a wide cross-section of musical genres. We pay performers a stipend of $100 and expect you to bring your own amplification. If you are interested in playing at the market, apply here.
Volunteering
We are always looking for volunteers to help with the setup, running, and take-down of the market. Sign up here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12bXnIRnAFWZNLW8c0VYNu6zD92grIznN-KFrk3lzcq8/edit?usp=sharing
