If you are passionate about the local floral community, then don't miss the Ottawa Flower Market at the Parkdale Market from 9 am to 1 pm : May 20, June 17, July 15, August 19, September 16, and October 7.

Started in early 2019 by six local farmer-florists, the market is following in the footsteps of the local slow food movement. It raises awareness of the availability and benefits of fresh, seasonal, sustainable flowers, grown without harmful chemicals and the added air miles that are usually associated with imported flowers.
