圣雅各农贸市场
圣雅各农贸市场（St. Jacobs Farmers' Market）是加拿大安大略省的一个农贸市场和跳蚤市场，位于滑铁卢区北国王街以南，铁路轨道以西。它是加拿大最大的全年农贸市场，[1] 是附近社区居民以及来自加拿大国内外游客的热门目的地。[2][3] 每年吸引大约100万游客。[4]
圣雅各农贸市场由基奇纳和滑铁卢的八名农民建立于1975年4月[5]。其中的Shantz 家族管理市场四十多年，直到2017年。市场最初只是“人行道上的帐篷”[3]。1986年，建成两层高、24,000-平方英尺（2,200-平方米） 的木建筑，[6][3]框架使用来自不列颠哥伦比亚省的横梁[1]。
市场的主楼在2013年9月2日被大火烧毁[7]，没有造成人员和牲畜的伤亡[2]。经过修复和扩建，耗资500万美元，34,000平方英尺（3,200平方米）的市场于2015年6月11日重新开放。[4] 市场于全年的周四和周六上午7点至下午3:30开放。
与原来的主楼一样，市场下层出售食品，上层出售手工艺品。购物者可以一站式找到各种肉类、奶酪、烘焙食品和当地美食。
