Testimonials:

Friends and I did the Wake Up to Market tour. At 6am, we were welcomed with a coffee and ready to go. Mercellez, our wonderful guide, filled us in on the history of the market & the running of the market even the waste management side. During our walk around, the store holders engaged in conversation with us and explained where they sourced their produce and the nature of their day starting in the early hours of the morning. The tour was a good insight in the
activities behind the scenes & without the distractions of a crowd of shoppers. Over a huge delicious breakfast, the group of 8 learned about future plans for the market . We said farewell after a tasting of hot chocolate and a hot American donut.
