The Perron District

The Perron District is an excellent intersection of cultural and trendy. Every Saturday in the summer until September, the St. Albert Farmers Market runs from 10AM to 3PM in this spot. Besides that, there are lots of small cafes (I recommend the gelato), some finer dining (Ric's Grill - an open air restaurant), and indie shops selling unique amenities. The farmers market is a thing of the past because it is not very common in most cities . Farmers market was when people in a town got together with there goods and sold them to one another this practice has been around since the late 1900's. The clock tower is an excellent example of the old architecture that can be found in the City of St.Albert. The different unique shops are an example of many towns in Alberta as they have a main street or special district where there are unique shops run by different independent owners not by big companies such as Walmart.
