St Lawrence Market Toronot

From Halifax to Tofino, Baffin Island to Drumheller Canada is full of interesting and fabulous individuals.  We had the privilege of meeting a few of these people on our visit to the St. Lawrence market during our stop in Toronto.

Ben from Sausage King, says what keeps people coming back is that all of their sausages are free from ‘fillers’ ie. No gluten or wheat products and no preservatives.  The ingredients list is simple: lamb, pork, or beef plus their seasonings.  The lamb is from Heron County, the pork is from Ontario, and the beef is sourced from Prince Edward Island.  Ben is proud of how culturally diverse Canada is and the fact that you can find any type food and all ingredients in Toronto.

Charlene at Carousel Bakery had a hard time identifying her favourite thing about where she works.  Charlene says that although there are so many items to choose from she is a fan of their peameal bacon which is a Canadian / Toronto tradition.   She also boasted that all the ladies that work at the bakery are second to none.  Nice work Charlene, the GCAT team admires your enthusiasm and loyalty.

Another local face at the St Lawrence market is Murry who you can find at the Golden Orchard kiosk. The Golden Orchard has been operating for 40 years and has been a source of organic food for the past 20 of those years.  Murry says that it is not only a business, but a passion, and like everyone we spoke to at the market he is proud to be a part of the St Lawrence Market.
