Trout Lake – Sept 20
It’s Organic Week! Trout Lake has the most organic farmers of all of the Vancouver Farmers Markets. This is where it all began 20 years ago and where many of them still keep on coming, week after week, bringing you certified organic, sustainably grown delicious food.

Or just talk to these intrepid farmers:

That’s right – Apple Lane Orchards! Rod from Denman Island is coming tomorrow with his heritage apples – we missed him last year, but he tells us this is a bumper crop season. If you’ve never tried his apples, make sure to grab a sample. You’ll walk out with a crate, we promise.
Upcoming Events:
#ProAm Competition at Main Street Station – Sept 24
#RIPE2014 at Roundhouse Community Center – October 19
See you at the market!
p.s. If you came last week and missed our ‘chain’ to lock up your bike – we now have temporary event bike racks!
