Shopping in Georgian Bay & Lakelands

  1. Mariposa Market

    It’s a bit like dining inside a Christmas stocking, but this half-bakery, half-knickknack shack is a feast for the eyes as well as the mouth. Try the assortment of savory pastries for a light lunch, grab a dessert, and shop around for candles and figurines.

  2. Grandma Lambe’s

    You won’t regret the 35km trek to Grandma Lambe’s (west on Hwy 26 between Thornbury and Meaford). The store is a delicious jumble of maple syrup vintages, butter tarts, bushels of vegetables and tables piled high with pies, buns and jellies.
