Currie's Farm Market, Collingwood
At the corner of 6th Street and the 10th Line in Collingwood right across from the Georgian Meadows subdivision, you’ll find Currie’s Farm Market, a
charming and authentic family run farm market that has been in
operation since 1957. Candice and Chris Currie are the third generation
of Curries to operate the market and much of the produce offered comes
right from the adjacent Currie Farm, the last working farm in
Collingwood.They’ve created the most delicious Apple Caramel Muffin just for the Apple Pie Trail and I can tell you first hand that it’s a fantastic way to start your morning because the muffins are baked fresh daily and perfect with an aromatic cup of Kicking Horse Coffee fresh brewed.
With
a focus on offering as many non GMO culinary options as possible and
firm beliefs in sustainability, the Curries are very keen on supporting
other local farmers and suppliers through their farm market. You’ll find
products from Meredith’s Ginger Syrup, The New Farm in Creemore, milk from Miller’s Dairy in Creemore, meat products and frozen entrees from Blue Ridge Meets in Collingwood, delicious pies from The Blackbird Pie Company in Heathcote and cheeses from Dags and Willow in Collingwood - and that’s just a start.
The
market is open seven days a week from Victoria Day right through to
Christmas and is an excellent place to source that all important very
tasty Thanksgiving bird or the family Christmas tree. Getting a
Christmas tree from the Curries is an experience in itself…you’ll likely
find Chris Currie outside in the tree lot beside the market bundled up
beside the fire waiting to shake your hand, give warm greetings and even
offer you a cup of warm, locally produced Blue Mountains Cider – a
bonus as you take home the most fragrant trees ever to grace your home
for the holidays.
