LOOK: St Jacobs Farmer's Market vows to spring back after fire

Posted By: Newstalk 1010 · 9/2/2013 2:41:00 PM
The community of St. Jacobs has been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support it has received since losing the village's popular farmer's market.Fire crews were called early Monday morning to a major blaze at the two-storey, 24,000 sq ft building that houses around 60 vendors.Woolwich Township Deputy Fire Chief Dale Martin says the fire gutted the complex's main building. But the market's outdoor section could be open by Thursday.The building is a total loss, only charred bits of the frame remaining.The building's wooden construction, fabrics and other materials sold by vendors, fuelled the blaze, which took 40 firefighters three hours to put out.The market had a new fire alarm system but wasn't equipped with sprinklers.No one was hurt in the fire, and the winds kept it away from a nearby livestock area. It isn't clear what sparked the blaze, though local police and the Ontario Fire Marshal are investigating.Martin expects the damage will total around $2-million.Woolwich Township Mayor Todd Cowan says the municipality will do what it can to get the market open again."This is a devastating loss for St. Jacobs, the Township of Woolwich, the region and the agricultural community", Cowan said in a statement.The president of the company that owns the market says the community is in shock. "It's overwhelming," Marcus Shantz, tells Newstalk 1010. "It's really humbling and it puts it in perspective because it's not just our building but something the whole community has taken ownership of."The market posted this statement on its facebook page:
We lost the main food building at the Market to a fire early Labour Day morning. Thanks to all the firefighters who came out to help us. They did a great job in making sure the fire didn’t spread to other buildings on the property. We are very grateful that no one was hurt.Our hearts go out to all of the great vendors in that building. Many of them were there since the building opened back in the late 1980’s. There is a long road ahead, but we will build a new home for your businesses.
We have a huge outdoor market, and another indoor food and flea market building, and our hope is to keep it open this week. At this very early stage, we can’t give a definite answer on that, but please stay tuned for further updates.A big THANK YOU to everyone who has reached out to us this morning. We have always said that the market is not the buildings. It’s the people – the vendors, customers, the whole community. We’re very humbled by the sense of ownership and pride that so many people have for this market. We will bring it back!

Premier Kathleen took to Twitter to thank firefighters who battled the blaze and express her regrets at the loss of the market."The destruction of the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market is a terrible loss to the Waterloo region. St. Jacobs played such an important role in the community and contributed greatly to the local economy."(with files from the Canadian Press & Justine Lewkowicz)
