SUMMER OUTDOOR MARKET
Beaverton, a small town on the east shores of Lake Simcoe, becomes a busy and vibrant community during the summer months. The population in the town more than triples the local numbers with cottage goers and tourists alike, coming from all over, spending a short vacation or staying at the family cottage for the season by the lake.
SIMCOE STREET SUMMER MARKET is right in the downtown core of the town, accessible from all major routes passing through the community, including the harbour front by boat. It's surrounded by many other quaint shops, food establishments, green space, historical buildings and landmarks, and a small hotel right next door, that all contribute to Beaverton's charm.
SIMCOE STREET SUMMER MARKET is a fantastic place where visitors can pick up beautiful products from multitudes of small independent vendors. They can find stalls selling an enticing range of food, farm fresh fruit and veg, preserves, baked goods, flowers and plants, vintage finds and antiques, clothes, accessories and unique gifts. They can chat to the local farmers, artists and craftspeople who display their wares. And they can shop here for delicious ingredients, tasty ready-made food, unique and unusual clothes and gifts, as well as eclectic furniture.
