Liberty Village Farmers' Market and Warehouse Sales

Lots going on in the Liberty neighbourhood these days.

First, they’re inaugurating a farmers' market every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., beginning May 27 and running until the end of October. About 40 Ontario Greenbelt farmers will be setting up shop at the Green P parking lot at the intersection of Atlantic Avenue and Liberty Street. There’ll be an official launch party on Sunday, June 10.

Also, the neighbourhood’s soul as a warehouse district lives on, with lots of warehouse and sample sales coming up over the next few weeks:

Lovely person and sensational designer Arthur Mendonça (whose Spring 07 collection is pictured above) is holding an overstock and sample sale with discounts from 75% to 90% (very exciting!) on Thursday, May 24 from 4 to 8 p.m. at 219 Dufferin Street, Suite 112C (south entrance).
