Apparently in the fall they have pumpkins, too. The annuals and hanging flower baskets are blooming full of colour. We picked up two flats of sweet strawberries for jam and desserts and they were utterly delicious. The people staffing the market are friendly and helpful, and they have a debit machine. There's parking, but sometimes the drivers are a bit rude. Still, the produce at Hutchinson Farm is as fresh as it gets.

Great value too, especially with the produce, which was top quality and great value.

We came out here a few times in the pandemic to pick up cider, special brews and cheeses. We found…read moreout from Dundurn Market how close the cidery was and so glad to visit. I especially love the cherry cider and drier cider varieties. It's a beautiful facility with places to hang out, picnic tables and views. Service was always friendly and knowledgeable. We'd love to come back, try some food and experience it fully.

We filled out growler multiple times throughout the weekend and got several flights as well. We even bought a few bottles to bring home! They have a great selection of local meats, cheeses, pickled items, etc that we also grabbed for breakfast. The sausage was delicious and so was the truffle cheese! The grounds here are spectacular with tons of trails, picnic tables, fire pits, and chickens and sheep to visit.

My review is similar to my Yelp experience. I bought a bottle of apple peach jam during my visit…read more I love a good road trip. I love driving, but the traffic on 400-series highways on the weekend can be brutal. Yesterday, I decided to go drop by Backed by Bees in Burlington. I was in Barrie. I left at 4 pm. Backed by Bees closes at 6 pm on Saturday. Am I crazy? That's a rhetorical question, but I'll answer it for you. Yes! What time did I get there? 5:55 pm. OMG! I parked next to the main entrance. I probably made my own parking spot, but I was the only person there besides two other cars in the lot. My guess was that they were owned by staff members. I love the look of this business as you drive up the country road. It's yellow, bright, and modular. You simply can't miss it! I walked up the steps while admiring the plants and cute patio area. I heard voices. No, not in my head, from inside the store. I was happy. I opened the door and was greeted by two staff members. I was so relieved! I thanked them for being open and checked in with the nice woman. She let me know that I could choose two meads from the fridge: hopped and cherry. She was also kind to say that I could take my time browsing. Yay! I loved everything that I saw, from cheese and jams, to nicely crafted wooden boards for charcuterie boards. From pet food, to medium veggie bundles, you can find the coolest items for you or a gift for someone cool. I especially was enamoured by mason jar pump caps. Brilliant! I picked out my two cans of mead. I fell in love with the jams and got a bottle of apple peach. I was so excited. Dave, the owner, helped check me out. He asked if I had had mead before. Coincidentally, I had a mead-tasting session at Ontario Honey Creations a few hours ago. Dave and those owners know each other, and he let me know that his mead isn't as strictly made as theirs, and that his is closer to a cider or cooler. That's so me that it works! He was delightful to chat with. He was so understanding with my drive down, as he has family members who did the same run earlier in the day. He let me know that his store is three weeks old. I love the minimalistic, modular design. It's pleasing to these eyes. He also indicated that he's working on installing taps in his store, so that people can drink mead out on the patio and have that bar vibe. I love that it, especially in the countryside. I paid for my bottle of jam with a debit card. We had problems getting the tap to work, so I inserted it into the device on the counter. Success! I got my receipt texted to save some paper. I thanked them both for staying open a bit later for me. I truly appreciated it! They left shortly afterwards. I ended up taking some outdoor photos and soaking up everything in a slower fashion before getting into my car to drive eastbound. I have only had the hopped mead so far. I dig it! Dave suggested that it's best when chilled and it is. It hit the spot on a cooler summer night. I am a fan and will return. I appreciated the mead, chat, and humanness on Saturday. I had a terrific experience despite blowing into the store like a madwoman. It was great visiting a part of Burlington that I knew nothing about beforehand. (324)

They were quite busy at 1pm on a Saturday but had time to give me a quick run down of their products. Backed by Bees is on a BEE-utiful plot of well landscaped land. The actual store building is made from shipping crates painted a bashful bright yellow. You'll see it as you drive down Appleby. They have a curation of many local goods that focuses on honey from food to soaps. They have their own pretty painted hive boxes in the back near a big beautiful oak tree you can sit by while you enjoy their honey mead! Of course there are bees buzzing around but they didn't bother me much. Just be calm and they won't.. bug you. At the back they have beautiful sunflowers and other small flowers that line their field for the bees to pollenate. I'd recommend this stop for a cute date with great photo ops. I enjoyed their hopped honey mead by the tree which was well balanced in terms of sweet and tartness. Easily drinkable for a hot summer day.

At the market, they sell jams, salsas and assorted fresh fruit and vegetables including sweet corn and tomatoes. They also offer butter tarts, beautiful pies, fancy cookies and other baked goods made daily on the premises. We tried the artisan pizza slices with unique toppings like sweet peppers, mushrooms, zucchini and olives. They were delicious but lukewarm even after they were reheated. Outside, there are picnic tables available. I found their prices high; you pay a premium for freshness. There was a long, slow moving line inside to pay. Social distancing was not adhered to because the market is so small. They had a large, attractive field of sunflowers.

Now I am visiting in January I can't wait to go back this Friday and Saturday to see which of the hearty vendors show up year round! When I was there in July, there were numerous veggie vendors, a few bakers, and some interestingly unique products like home made ice cream that apparently sells out every time the vendor is there! I regret that I walked by the ice cream vendor, not understanding how high quality it was. I'll have to return in the summer so I can indulge :) Lots of parking available, in a nice, up and coming if not already trendy area of Ottawa Street North. Highly recommend checking out the small local businesses while you're in the area, perhaps go for lunch or coffee and enjoy the walkability of the area.
