Comox Valley Farmers’ Market – Saturday
4839 Headquarters Rd., Courtenay, V9J 1P2cvfm.caThe Comox Valley Farmers’ Market has been a community institution since a group of local growers organized in 1992 and began selling their produce directly to their friends and neighbours. Over 25 years later, a handful of original vendors are now joined by dozens of new food producers every Saturday throughout the summer at the Comox Valley Exhibition Grounds, before moving indoors to the Native Son’s Hall from October – April.
Vendors at this market provide everything needed to fill a pantry – from farm fresh produce and locally produced food items, to beef, chicken, and turkey and seasonal bison, rabbit, duck, goose, and tuna.
Open Saturdays 9am-1pm
