Greenwood Park — Attraction in Toronto

It's very...

I do not live in the area. On the invitation of my daughter, we went to the farmers market at the Greenwood Park. It was Saturday morning, a very bright sunny day. The grass in the Park was green and the air was filled with the smell of fresh fruits and goodies. Fresh home grown vegetables, fruits, preserves, jams and jellies, bake goods, home made bread, fudges and candies and food stalls, cocoa sticks which I had not seen since I left my home land in South America. We enjoyed walking around the park and running after my little grand. I Love the park because it is close to the road and I feel safe. Now that I have discovered the park I do plan to visit much more often. It is the perfect place to take my grandchildren for a walk and I do plan to visit the farmers...
