About Port Perry Farmers' Market

Port Perry Farmers' Market is a community-focused farmers market located along the waterfront in downtown Port Perry, Ontario. Operating seasonally on Saturdays, it brings together local farmers, food producers, and artisans offering fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, eggs, dairy, baked goods, preserves, honey, maple syrup, prepared foods, flowers, plants, and handmade crafts. The market is often referred to as the Port Perry Lakefront Farmers’ Market and is promoted by local tourism and municipal organizations as a key destination for buying local food and goods.([choosebrock.ca](https://choosebrock.ca/events/event/port-perry-farmers-market-2/?utm_source=openai))

A charge with a descriptor like “SQ *PORT PERRY _F” likely reflects a purchase from a vendor at the Port Perry Farmers' Market that uses Square as its point-of-sale payment processor. Individual stalls at the market process card payments under their own merchant accounts, so the descriptor can reference the market name rather than a specific farmer or vendor. Common transaction types include one-time purchases of fresh produce, meats, baked goods, coffee or beverages, prepared foods, or artisan products. Since the market is seasonal and runs only on certain days and months, charges typically cluster on Saturday market dates during the operating season.([choosebrock.ca](https://choosebrock.ca/events/event/port-perry-farmers-market-2/?utm_source=openai))

If you have questions about a charge that you believe is from Port Perry Farmers' Market, start by checking any email receipts or SMS confirmations from Square, as these often list the specific vendor name and contact details. You can also compare the transaction date and amount with your visit to the market and the purchases you recall making. For further clarification, you may contact the market organizers via the email and website listed on the official Port Perry Farmers' Market site or reach out directly to the vendor if their name appears on your receipt. If you still cannot recognize the transaction, you can dispute or inquire about the charge with your card issuer, providing them with the date, amount, and descriptor so they can investigate the underlying Square merchant record.

  1. SQ *PORT PERRY _F

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my bank statement show a charge from “SQ *PORT PERRY _F”?

This descriptor usually indicates a purchase made at the Port Perry Farmers' Market from a vendor using Square as their payment processor. The “SQ *” prefix refers to Square, and the “PORT PERRY _F” portion likely refers to the Port Perry Farmers’ Market rather than a standalone store. Check any Square email or text receipts from the date of the charge to see which specific vendor you bought from.

What types of purchases typically generate charges at Port Perry Farmers’ Market?

Most charges at Port Perry Farmers’ Market come from one-time purchases of local goods such as fresh produce, meats, eggs, dairy products, baked goods, preserves, coffee or other beverages, prepared foods, flowers, plants, and handmade crafts. Vendors set their own prices, so charge amounts can range from just a few dollars for a single item to larger totals if you purchase multiple products from several stalls in one visit.

Can Port Perry Farmers’ Market charges be recurring or subscription-based?

Nearly all Port Perry Farmers’ Market transactions are one-time, in-person purchases. However, some vendors may offer CSA (Community Shared Agriculture) boxes or recurring orders and might sign you up for ongoing deliveries or periodic pickups, which could appear as repeat charges. If you see recurring amounts, review any CSA or standing order agreements you may have made with a specific vendor at the market and contact that vendor directly to modify or cancel the arrangement.

How can I get a receipt or purchase details for a Port Perry Farmers’ Market charge?

If you paid through Square, you may have been offered an email or text receipt at the time of purchase—search your inbox or messages for “Square” around the transaction date. These digital receipts typically list the vendor’s business name, items purchased, and tax details. If you did not receive a digital receipt, you can return to the market and speak with the vendor, bringing your bank statement with the date, amount, and approximate time to help them locate the transaction in their Square records.

How do I request a refund or resolve an incorrect charge from a market vendor?

Refunds and billing corrections must be handled by the individual vendor that processed your card, not by the market as a whole. Use the contact details on your Square receipt or any business card or packaging you received to reach the vendor and explain the issue, providing the date, amount, and last four digits of your card. If you cannot identify the vendor and the charge appears unauthorized, contact your card issuer to dispute the transaction and provide them with the descriptor and any evidence you have.

Why do I see a small pending or temporary charge related to a Port Perry Farmers’ Market visit?

Some vendors’ payment terminals or card issuers may place temporary authorization holds when your card is first tapped, swiped, or inserted—especially if the final amount is adjusted (for example, after adding additional items). These holds may appear as small or slightly different amounts on your online banking and usually drop off automatically once the final transaction is settled. If a pending hold does not clear or posts as a duplicate, contact your bank or the vendor for clarification.

How can I confirm that a Port Perry Farmers’ Market charge is legitimate?

Match the transaction date and time with when you visited the market, and compare the amount to what you remember spending. Look up any Square email or text receipts and check that the card’s last four digits and transaction total match your statement. If the timing and amount align with your visit, the charge is likely legitimate. If you were not in Port Perry or at the market on that date, or the amount seems far too high, contact your bank immediately to report a potential fraudulent transaction.

How can I contact the Port Perry Farmers’ Market organizers if I have questions?

You can visit portperryfarmersmarket.ca for general information about the market, including current season details, location, and contact options. The site and related municipal or tourism pages often list a contact email and sometimes social media channels for the market organizers. Keep in mind they coordinate the market but do not control individual vendor billing, so for specific transaction issues you will usually need to contact the vendor that processed your payment.
