VERIFIED LOCAL VENDORS

Be Aware, are you buying from "Verified Local" Vendors at the Farmers' Market? (Ontario only)

"Who Can Apply as a “Verified Local” Vendor?
All Ontario bona-fide, conventional and organic growers and producers may apply. As part of the initial application, all prospective vendors will be required to submit a full list of the produce/products to be sold and indicate when these items will be available for market. All farms will be inspected by an independent farm inspector, hired by FMO. There is zero tolerance for the reselling of products that have not been grown by the vendor."

PRODUCT OF CANADA

Be Aware, are you buying Canadian products? If the label includes "Product of Canada" it is Canadian. If the label does not say "Product of Canada", then it may not be a Canadian product.
