St. Jacobs is known for many things, but looming large among them is one of the most successful farmers' markets anywhere in the world– the enormous, thriving Farmers’ Market, located between the village of St. Jacobs and the city of Waterloo. The St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market and Flea Market features over 500 vendors. Visitors find the Market irresistible, and thousands of regional residents stock their larders at the market on a weekly basis. There is always something interesting and unique going on, from auctions to buskers to a children’s petting zoo. The St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market is open Thursday and Saturday, year round, 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Check out the St. Jacobs Farmers Market on the web at http://www.stjacobs.com/html/shopping-farmersmarkets.html
