Grocery Stores

Large grocery store chains offer an excellent selection of local and imported food products and spices. They are open 7 days a week and only close on major holidays.

Farmers’ Markets

Perhaps you prefer the joy that comes with being able to buy your food directly from the farmer, or enjoy being able to browse through a variety of specialty vendors. Farmers’ Markets are a great option. However, these markets often have limited hours of operation compared to large grocery store chains. Farmer’s Markets in Hamilton and Burlington include:

• Hamilton Farmer’s Market
• Ottawa Street Farmer’s Market
