FAQ

About Underpass Park Farmers Market

Underpass Market was established by Suzanne Kavanagh in 2017 as a volunteer run, not-for-profit community market in Underpass Park, Corktown, Toronto. We are now entering our 8th season!

Is there an entrance fee?

Absolutely not! The Underpass Park Farmers’ Market’s entrance is free and will always be!

is there a washroom on site?

There are no public washrooms at Underpass Park, the nearest one is in Corktown Common by the Splash Pad (5 minute walk), and there are also bathrooms nearby at Tim Hortons or Impact Kitchen on King Street.

How can I pay for what I buy?

Cash is preferred, but most of our vendors are equipped with card machines so you can pay with your debit or credit card. In few cases, some of our vendors also accept e-transfers.

Are dogs allowed?

The Underpass Park Farmers’ Market is dog-friendly* as long as your furry friend can behave in public 🙂 and is on a leash.
* also cat, rabbit, ferret, err… llama-friendly?
