🌿☀️ SUMMER WALK TO THE EVERGREEN BRICK WORKS & MARKET ☀️🌿 Ravine Trails, Outdoor Market & One of Toronto’s Best Skyline Lookout Spots Summer is the perfect time to explore some of Toronto’s hidden green spaces — and few places feel as unique as Evergreen Brick Works. Join us for a relaxed social walk from St. Clair down through the ravine trails toward the Brick Works, where nature, history, community, and city views all come together. Even though you’re still in Toronto, parts of this walk feel surprisingly peaceful — shaded forest paths, creeks, birds, hidden trails, and eventually the old industrial buildings of the Brick Works opening up in the middle of the valley. And in the summer? The whole place comes alive. 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd) \*\*\* 🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do: We’ll begin at St. Clair Station and walk down through the ravine system toward the Brick Works together. Once there, we’ll: 🌿 Explore the outdoor market ☕ Grab drinks, snacks, or lunch 🛍️ Browse local vendors and shops 😊 Sit, relax, and socialize for a bit Afterward, we’ll continue the adventure by walking up to one of the nearby lookout spots for beautiful skyline and valley views. 📸🌆 Then we’ll slowly make our way back together. And if at any point you feel tired or want to head home early, buses run directly from the Brick Works to nearby subway stations — easy and flexible. \*\*\* 🌤️ Weather & Expectations This event happens rain or shine. Please come prepared for: ✔️ Outdoor walking trails ✔️ Some hills and stair sections ✔️ Warm summer weather ✔️ A longer walk at a relaxed pace This is more of a social nature walk than a fast-paced hike. \*\*\* 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: We will meet outside St. Clair Subway Station in front of the McDonald's — look for Mathew in his iconic Moose Hat 🫎 ⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes. Early is on time. On time is late. 🏁 Ending Spot: Yonge & St. Clair \*\*\* 🎟️ Meetup Fee: $5 cash in person or e-transfer to 📧 \*\*[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com**](http://mathewmaclean@hotmail.com%2A%2A/) This fee helps support the group and allows us to continue hosting events like this. Thank you for supporting community! 💖 \*\*\* 🎒 What to Bring 💧 Water 👟 Comfortable walking shoes ☀️ Sunscreen 🧢 Hat or sunglasses 🥨 A snack if you’d like Guests are welcome! \*\*\* 🌿 More About the Brick Works From 1889 to the 1980s, the Don Valley Brick Works was one of Canada’s most important brick manufacturing sites, helping build much of Toronto itself. Today, the restored site has become one of the city’s most beloved urban nature spaces — combining historic industrial buildings, markets, trails, gardens, and environmental spaces all in one place. It’s one of those Toronto spots that people always seem surprised they didn’t discover sooner. \*\*\* 🌈 Who Is This For? This group is open to anyone who wants to be social and make friends — whether single or not. We also host: 🎬 Movies 🚶 Walks & hikes 🎭 Arts & culture outings 🍽️ Restaurant gatherings There’s always something happening. \*\*\* 💛 REMEMBER: You can just show up — or decide on the day if you’re not 100% sure. ⚠️ NOTE: Sometimes things happen and plans may change — please keep an eye out for updates. \*\*\* 👤 Organizer: Mathew Questions? Post on the event wall or email 📧 [torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com](mailto:torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com) Come for the trails. Stay for the market. Leave feeling like you escaped the city for a few hours without ever leaving Toronto. 🌿✨

**The Rain Check Update:** \> Let’s try this again\, shall we? Mother Nature completely flooded us out last time\, turning our brisk hike into an accidental synchronized swimming event\. Since none of us brought a snorkel\, we are rescheduling\! Same mission\, hopefully much less mud\. On **Saturday, June 27th**, let’s get our hearts pumping and our stomachs growling. We’re hitting the [Crothers Woods](https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/crothers-woods-and-brickwotks-9914464) trails for a brisk city ravine loop before heading to the **Evergreen Brick Works**. The pace will be snappy—think "I have a lunch date later" fast. We’ll be hunting down those legendary tapioca crepes and empanadas like they’re the last pieces of gear at an MEC sale. * **The Mission:** An 8.5 km jaunt in about 2 hours. Level 2 if you please. * **The Schedule:** Meet at **9:30 AM**. You’ll be back on your couch by 12:45 PM. * **The Spot:** [50-58 True Davidson Dr.](https://www.google.ca/maps/place/43%C2%B041'36.9%22N+79%C2%B022'00.2%22W/@43.693588,-79.3672642,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x0:0x0!7e2!8m2!3d43.6935869!4d-79.3667166) 1.
