The Waterdown Farmers’ Market takes root in the parking lot of the Royal Canadian Legion every Saturday morning, rain or shine, from 8 AM to 1 PM from the end of May until mid-October. 2024 marks the 11^th season of the current iteration of the community Market, continuing a decades old tradition of showcasing our community’s agricultural roots. 

Vendor offerings include local produce, meats and eggs direct from the farm, plus baked goods, preserves, VQA Ontario wines and more. We’re excited to welcome 6 new growers and half a dozen new food makers, expanding offerings to now include mushrooms, dairy products, vegan treats and more diverse ethnic flavours.

The Fall Garden & Mum Show is Ontario’s largest Chrysanthemum show presented by City Horticulture staff. The show started in 1920 and a new theme each year has taken us through dramatic scenes of flowers, colours and displays with over 200 varieties of Chrysanthemums, and more than 100,000 blooms grown at Gage Park Greenhouse.

Are you wondering where to get rid of hazardous waste because it isn’t accepted in the garbage collection program? Do you have end-of-life electronics kicking around that you need to get rid of? Well you’re in luck! Haldimand County hosts four household hazardous waste and waste electronic events each year in four different areas throughout the County. See below for event details!
