Linda and David are relatively new to country living and took a leap of faith three years ago when they moved permanently from Halifax to Merigomish. They are both avid gardeners and decided to start a small market garden on their two acre, riverside property. They particularly enjoy growing heirloom vegetables including asparagus, lettuce, basil, garlic and many varieties of tomatoes – all their produce is grown without chemical fertilizers or insecticides.
Linda, who used to be a caterer, is also a keen baker and offers a variety of handmade breads including Olive and Rosemary, Pepper Cheese and Multi Grain Yogurt along with other baked goods and sweets. She also offers an intersting selection of jams, marmalades and chutneys.



The Antigonish Farmers' Market was established in 1995 as a local venue for farmers and other producers to market their wares directly to the public. With the support of the people of Antigonish and the surrounding area, the Market has continued to grow and thrive.
