A great thing about living in the Christie Pits area is the Bloor Fruit Market.
Like many sprinkled around the streets of Toronto, this little store is jam packed of fruits and veggies that are fresh, Ontario grown and well priced! If you don't live directly in China Town you may not have access to the hordes of vendors that line the streets there.
Instead, it's great that you can walk just a few minutes down the street from the Christie subway station and have a smaller version of this. Find Bloor Fruit Market open all year long at the corner of Bloor and Manning.
