A Greener Lifestyle


It doesn’t get much Greener than Ottawa's Old Town Farmers Market!

As part of a healthier active lifestyle, Ottawa’s Old Town Farmers Market is a local favorite. The farmer’s market is a tradition in Starved Rock Country as an important part of the agricultural heritage of the community; they are also a great source of sustainably grown food. The food is fresher than most anything in the supermarket and that means it is tastier and more nutritious.
Locally grown produce and goods are sold directly to the consumer at a Farmers Market; therefore, it saves fossil fuels making it a greener alternative. Ottawa’s Old Town Farmers Market is also a good way for our visitors to sample local foods and learn about our local community.
Ottawa's Old Town Farmers Market is a wonderful place to purchase freshly grown vegetables, home baked goods, jams and jellies, dog treats, and even hand made crafts. So why not make the Ottawa’s Old Town Farmers Market a part of your weekend at Heritage Harbor. You can dock your boat or park the car near downtown Ottawa and go explore the many things offered in this amazing community.
Starved Rock Country offers more than just beautiful scenery; our home invites a sense of community and a warm neighborly feeling.
