Since 1973, the Errington Farmers’ Market has served the communities of Errington, Coombs, Hilliers, Whiskey Creek and Parksville.
“Make it, Bake it, Grow it or Forage It” is the basic tenet of farmers’ markets. This means that in order to sell at the market, each vendor has to be directly involved in the making, baking or growing of their product! Customers are encouraged to ask questions of the farmers, food producers and artisans to receive knowledgeable, accurate answers.
In 1900, 90% of Canadians were involved in agriculture and today it is less than 4%. In 1960, 60% of our food was grown on Vancouver Island and now it is less than 4%.
Shopping at farmers’ markets is a way to truly “Support Local”, and it’s a great way to connect with people in the area, learn new things, and try different foods.
