One kid-friendly activity to add to your summer bucket list has got to be: visiting a local farmers’ market! With 145+ farmers’ markets across BC, it’s easy to find one near you! The BC Association of Farmers’ Markets has made it even easier to locate a farmers’ market with their handy online BC Farmers’ Market Trail tool. The Trail is a free, mobile-friendly website featuring a farmers’ market finder which quickly directs shoppers to fresh local food and goods available in both big city and small town BC.

It’s the most convenient way for families to enhance their travel experience, reconnect with communities around the province, and support local businesses across the markets within BC. By visiting BC farmers’ markets, you can enjoy fresh air while shopping outdoors and directly investing in 4,000+ local farmers and entrepreneurs.
