The Barrie Farmers’ Market I love is losing its identity, but it’s far from too late. It’s time for the decisionmakers and organizers to take a step back, look at where the market came from and what it needs to be. Is it still to be a proud, historic part of our community that connects us with our local food producers while offering us the chance to check out what local artisans have to offer while we’re there? Or is it a craft market that is ready for a name change?
