WE LOVE FARMER’S MARKETS!!
If you are someone who believes in supporting local farmers for environmental, economic and community focused reasons then you are likely someone who loves Farmer’s markets too. The good news is that across Canada there are countless Farmer’s Markets out there that take place at various locations and times throughout the growing season. The challenge of course, is to keep track of just where and when they all take place.
So to help out with the challenge, we thought that we would create a listing of Farmer’s Markets of our own based upon some of our own research as well as input from readers like you!
Our own Heather Lochner has put in a lot of time to create the beginnings of our Farmer’s Market list, but we know that there are many others out there. To make this list as comprehensive as it can be – WE NEED YOUR HELP!
If you know of a Farmer’s Market that is not listed here and is located ANYWHERE IN CANADA, we’d love it if you could either post it in the comments below, or better yet SEND US AN E-MAIL using the contact link in our sidebar with the info (weblink preferred) and we will add it to the list.
