Highlights

Market pivoted to an outdoor format
Main building closed by fire department due to safety deficiencies
Vendors continued to sell perishable goods

Hundreds of people attended the outdoor Trails End Farmers’ Market on September 12, 2026, following a decision to pivot to an open-air format. The market's main building, located at 4370 Dundas St. in Thorndale, had been ordered closed by the Thames Centre fire department, an action approved by the Ontario fire marshal, citing "serious and life safety deficiencies." Despite the short notice of the building closure, vendors expressed gratitude for the opportunity to sell perishable farm products and serve loyal customers who depend on their more affordable goods. Patrons also praised the market's quick adaptation to the unforeseen circumstances.
