Downsview Park Merchants Market & Farmers Market - North York, Ontario

A village within a city where you can get fresh produce at reasonable rates, and even bargain directly with the sellers! There's a wide range of products you can buy from small business owners and be satisfied that you've made a family happy that day. Does not open everyday, but certainly one of the best places to get your produce in bulk ahead of the next open day.

What an absolutely incredible experience, the food court was the best part of this flea market. The food was both delicious and affordable. The shops are also amazing and you can buy really great products here for really cheap.

Places like these are the heart and soul of our city and we must want to preserve them forever.

Brought my kids and they loved it. Although some restaurants open a lot later than when the market opens The selection of food was great. We got a few diff things form diff places. It was delicious. I will be returning to try other spots and other things I haven’t gotten a chance to last time.

From perfectly ripe tomatoes and sweet peaches to crisp greens and freshly picked herbs, everything feels like it was harvested that morning. The variety changes with the season, which keeps things exciting and encourages healthy, local eating.

Fantastic market for fruits, vegetables, watch repair, books, food court. Great to spend time shopping and have lunch

Not bad for a first-time visit, but I would definitely prefer other farmers' markets. Many of the fruits and vegetables were not fresh, and some were even spoiled. The market felt quite unorganized and noticeably unclean, which made the shopping experience uncomfortable. Additionally, most vendors only accepted cash, which was inconvenient and unexpected in a Canadian setting. Overall, it didn’t meet the standard I was hoping for.

I highly recommend visiting this flea market.

First of all, it has a convenient location, just 5 minutes away from the subway station, making it hard to miss. Secondly, the variety of sellers is impressive. You can find everything from food to perfume, books to antiques, collectibles to toys. It’s a mind-blowing experience.

There are food stands offering home-style, affordable meals, as well as grab-and-go snacks. Additionally, outdoor food stands feature grills and BBQ, serving delicious options like corn on the cob and twisted potatoes that smell amazing.

Lastly, the vibe of the place is unique. It’s not your ordinary flea market. Here, you are an explorer with no direct guides—just follow the beat of your heart.

It's good to see many people of vivid backgrounds coming to sell their stuff. I personally felt that fruit & veggies aren't as fresh seen in other places like metro, Walmart & were pricey too.
There is an antique market beside, which puzzled me as it has lots of varieties of cheap stuff like vessels, jewellery, artifacts etc which are rare to find at such prices.
