Event Description
We are looking forward to a vibrant Farmers’ Market season this year and would like to invite you and your readers to come out and enjoy all the delicious home grown veggies, hand made arts, crafts and scrumptious prepared foods lovingly produced by your local farmers and artisans. Visiting the Market can be a quick stop for the week’s supplies, or part of a wonderful day trip.
Try combining a hike, bike ride or swim, with a relaxing snack break, listening to some great music at the Market, to really complete the day! Every year our Market welcomes new and returning vendors, so there are new friends to make, old ones to swap stories with and the pleasure of shopping from, and with, your friends and neighbours. It’s a happy social event and its great to know where your purchases come from. You will find the freshest food there is. Buying fresh veggies directly from a local farmer means they last longer and they taste better. Biting into a freshly baked bun can be heavenly. Tracking down the perfect gift for someone that is original and locally made adds a special touch to a celebration.
And to top it off, you strengthen our local community; you support the local economy and help increase our food security here on the island. Market shopping from a diverse selection of produce, foods and artisan creations, supports your local friends and neighbours and takes the sameness out of the big box routine.
So, savour the enhanced browsing and shopping experience at your Metchosin Market and get to know your vendors. You will come away pleased.
