Farm Stands & Farmers Markets
If a green roadside flag is flying, the farm stand is open!
Flocks of heritage hens, pastured farm animals, permaculture gardens, and wild harvesting are all common here.
Farmers markets generally run from May to October. A popular local attraction steeped in the unique island vibe is the Saturday Farmers Market. Local food is also available at the Mid-Week Market and Silva Bay Market.

About
Who is IRIS?
IRIS has 35 years of experience passionately championing quality vision care in this country. What began in 1986 in a small town in Quebec has grown to be the largest group of eyecare professionals working together under one banner in Canada! Like all Canadian success stories, whether large or small, IRIS started with a dream: to improve the vision of Canadians by offering them the best solutions for their unique needs. We are forever grateful for the vision and guidance of Dr. Francis Jean, Optometrist and founder of IRIS, for the gift of this amazing company and the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our patients.
