The Best of Perth County
Shop the products of local artisans & farmers

Come meet the local farmers, food producers and artisans who grow your food and create Perth County’s reputation as one of the best agricultural regions in North America. The Market is set up along the Avon River and in Market Square on Saturday and Sunday. Farmers from the Stratford Farmers’ Market and the Slow Food Farmers’ Market come together to celebrate local fresh food at the annual Savour Stratford Festival – families are encouraged to shop for their weekly groceries at the market. A Real Food Challenge will be presented to the families of Stratford through a local media campaign – asking them to pledge to grow fresh real food (with the tools they get a Savour Stratford) or buy at least 10% of their real fresh food at the Savour Stratford Farmer’s Market. We challenge the families to pass it on – to inspire their neighbours, their friends and school mates to take part in the Real Food Challenge.

“I think most people generally know that there's farming going on in this part of the province but I think sometimes they don't appreciate just how well done it is.”

Savour Stratford Perth County Culinary Festival “this moveable feast is an exuberant, grass-roots, hands-on way to enjoy the food of Perth County.”
