Corbeille de Pain
By/Par Anik Vigneault
With the collaboration of the city, Corbeille de Pain will once again be running their Pointe-Claire Solidarity Market in the parking lot of the Bob Birnie Arena at 58 Maywood Avenue, every Wednesday from 4 to 7 pm, from July 3rd to October 16th, 2024.
To celebrate the launch of this market on July 3rd, Corbeille de Pain will have lots of activities planned for that day. There will be live music, a BBQ, face painting, and more!
Everyone is welcome to shop at Corbeille de Pain's Pointe-Claire Solidarity Market! This market features fresh, in-season, and local produce. Their "pay what you can" model allows market participants to pay a fairer price based on their own financial situation. And if shoppers are able, they can "pay it forward" by paying more than the advertised price for their produce. This "extra" will then go to help fellow West Islanders in need.

Tout le monde est le bienvenue au marché solidaire de Pointe-Claire de Corbeille de Pain ! Ouvert tous les mercredis de 16 h à 19 h dans le stationnement de l'aréna Bob Birnie, 58 av. Maywood. Ce marché propose des produits frais, de saison et locaux. Leur modèle "payez ce que vous pouvez" permet aux participants au marché de payer un prix plus juste en fonction de leur propre situation financière. Et si vous êtes en mesure, vous pouvez "payez au suivant" en payant plus que le prix annoncé pour vos aliments. Ce "supplément" servira alors à aider vos compatriotes de l'Ouest-de-l'Île qui sont plus vulnérables.
