Our vendors have put together our largest ever Bergen Farmers’ Market for this special Saturday: Local Food Week + Open Farm Days. For live music, we have a special appearance by Lillybelle with their Celtic instrumentals and vocals. As for food…where to start? Everything from local gardens: potatoes, beets, beans (green, yellow and Bergendy …er… Burgundy), broccoli, spinach, carrots, swiss chard, shelling peas, basil, horse radish, green onions and more; have we piqued your taste buds yet? What about grass-raised Bergen beef, artisan bread and baking, pies, cinnamon buns, cupcakes and fruit crisps? Locally-roasted coffee, mead, honey, pickled quail eggs, preserves and granola. And our artists and crafters! Whether you’re looking for something crocheted, knitted, made out of pottery, metal or wood, or a special piece of jewellery, you’re sure to find something beautiful and unique. Organic BC fruit this week: freestone peaches by the pound or by the case; red and purple plums; deliciously ugly tomatoes; fresh garlic.

Have we mentioned our freebies? As part of the celebration, this week only we’re offering free Market bags, and special treats from Homegrown Health.

Add in our famous friendliness, and how could you miss this week’s Market? 10am-1pm, Bergen Community Hall.
