Doon Heritage Crossroads is a living history museum, re-creating a rural village and two farms, where costumed interpreters welcome you to the year 1914. Over twenty historic buildings, period furnishings, farm animals, heritage gardens, and demonstrations of daily chores help 40,000 visitors annually to discover an exciting era of change in Canadian history.
The vibrant agricultural heritage of Waterloo Region has made St. Jacobs Country's two authentic farmers' markets popular attractions for local shoppers and visitors!
St. Jacobs Farmers' Markets continue to complement the strong agricultural activity of the area, and provide a unique and lively place to shop. At the markets, you will find aisle upon aisle of fresh produce from across Ontario and from local farm gardens. Plus, you will find meats, cheese, baking, crafts, home decor, furniture, clothes, tools and more. Local delicacies such as summer sausage and pure maple syrup are sold by Mennonite farmers who travel to market by horse and buggy. Indoors and outdoors, on the east and west side of Weber Street, you will find more than 600 vendors! Come and fill your market basket! Also, enjoy live performances by Buskers and year round special events!
