Ambleside North Vancouver Farmers Market

Ambleside Farmer's Market is in the parking lot behind the Police Station on Bellevue between 13th and 14th Streets in Ambleside, West Vancouver.

Ambleside Farmer's Market started in June of 2005 in this great location adjacent to the entrance to Ambleside Park and Beach. We often look toward the ocean, a block away to see a huge cruise ship passing so close you can almost touch it! Quite spectacular!

We are very lucky to have such a great variety of organic and conventional farmers at this location. We also have a good selection of prepared foods including baking, syrups, jams, jellies, honey, salsas, anti pastas and much more. We also have a good and varied selection of B.C. crafts including jewelry, clothing, wrought iron, garden sculptures, soaps, pottery and much, much more. Ambleside Market has a book exchange, newspaper reading area, games table, kids play area, and live music.

Lonsdale Quay North Vancouver Farmers Market

Lonsdale Quay Farmer's Market started on the East Plaza at the Quay in April of 2002. The location is perfect for a Farmer's Market as it has trees which shade the vendors and a cool breeze coming off the water which is great for keeping the produce cool. The location is spectacular with a view of Vancouver and the cruise ships arriving and departing.

We have been lucky in having some of the best organic and conventional farmers in B.C. attend the market plus great bakers, jam makers, honey gathers, and salsa makers. The market has great diversity in vendors and a good collection of crafter's who sell jewelry, children's decals, pottery, soaps, kids clothing and much more. This market has a book exchange, newspaper reading area, and live music.

Burnaby Farmers Market

Burnaby's first Farmers' Market started on June 13th, 2008 in the North Parking Lot at Burnaby City Hall. We were at this location for three years and it was a very successful location for us.

Last season we moved to the lovely Burnaby Village Museum for the season. It is a lovely location but did not work well for the market so this year we have asked to move back to the North Parking Lot at Burnaby City Hall at Canada Way and Deer Lake Parkway. We are very excited to be back at our old location where we our customers can drive and park right at the market and where we can also have events featuring bikes and customers dogs.

We have great farmers, both conventional and Organic with a great selection of prepared food vendors and local crafters. There is a kids play tent, a used book exchange, games table, sitting area with local newspapers and wonderful live music. Come and shop at this great market and join in all the fun.
