The Vancouver's Farmers Market is a source of community as well as fresh BC food. When you walk through the market, there are opportunities to meet the farmers, bakers and artisans, who have created each wonderful product. Throughout the Summer, Vancouver residents can go to markets in various locations around the city. As community spaces are filled with market vendors, there is a buzz that consists of acoustic music and children playing. When the Summer comes to an end, it is difficult to accept the absence of the vibrant markets and fresh treats.
Fortunately, there is also a Winter market that avid customers can attend weekly. The FROGBOX team are big fans of the Farmers Market. We are excited to be involved in an upcoming event called RIPE this Sunday, September 26th. This event is a celebration and a fundraiser to help support the Farmers Market.
By buying a ticket to RIPE you will be directly supporting the organization to not only improve the Farmers Markets that currently exist within Vancouver, but to grow the number of markets, bringing local, seasonal food to more people in more communities.” Come out and enjoy this fabulous and family-friendly extravaganza! Keep an eye out for FROGBOX moving boxes, which have been donated for this event. We hope to contribute to farmers market events in Seattle and Toronto as well!
