We stopped by Little Jamaica in Toronto, Canada, to visit the Afro-Caribbean Farmers Market, where we learned about the purpose behind the need for the market. We also spoke with the Toronto Black Farmers Collective about Food Security in the Afro-Caribbean Community. We chatted with vendors about why they feel the market is an essential resource.
The Afro-Caribbean Farmers Market is a unique farmers’ market in Toronto that offers clean, culturally appropriate fruits and vegetables from the Caribbean islands and continental African countries, along with a healthy mix of clean produce grown by our local urban farmers from the diaspora.
