There are many gems at this market, and it's nice that it also includes some crafts, but steer clear of the resellers that are selling chain grocery store quality produce and stick to the smaller growers. It's convenient that it runs three times a week, but you'll need to go to the Memorial Centre Market for winter shopping. Ambiance is great in the Kingston City Hall / Springer Market Square.
