The UW Farm Market will be open to all students, staff, faculty and to the public. It follows other local initiatives like Foodlink Waterloo Region which promotes food localism.
Student volunteers will be operating the not-for-profit market while UW Food Services will handle purchasing and the short-distance shipment to campus.
We’re bringing the fresh harvest of local farms, preserves and honeys made in Waterloo County together with fresh baked goods from our own UW Village Bakery allowing students to purchase fresh, nutritious foods without leaving campus and at the same time reduce their ecological footprint.
In support of the environment, we are promoting a "Bring Your Own Bag" program for our market.
Located in the Lower Atrium at the Student Life Centre, this summer & fall the UW Farm Market will once again feature UW Village Bakery, local honey and preserves and seasonal locally grown produce.
Don't miss an exciting opportunity to purchase quality products and enjoy the ambience of a farmers market.
