If Toronto’s increasingly ridiculous real estate market has got you down, there’s no time like the present to check out property in The Hammer!

This Saturday, make the trek to Hamilton for Craftadian: Made in Hamilton at McMaster Innovation Park (175 Longwood Road South). Get to know your new hometown while supporting local artisans, designers and food trucks. Find handmade creations from more than forty-five local makers crafting everything from organic skincare and natural cleaning products to quirky stationery and clothing: it’s the perfect place to get all your back-to-school shopping done.

PLUS, a portion of your admission goes to Hamilton Food Share, a program working with the community to reduce hunger. The event runs from 11 am to 6 pm. Admission is only $3, or free if you’re under sixteen. Get there early – if you’re among the first fifty in line, you get a FREE swag bag filled with homemade goodies.
