Farmers’ markets who doesn’t love them?
It’s that time of year again, when the Vancouver weather cooperates (sometimes, at least) long enough for us to shop outdoors for fresh fruit, veggies and a whole lot more.
Farmers’ markets may look a bit different this year fewer people, more hand sanitizer, a lot more masks but rest assured that you’ll still find all of your favourite vendors selling their wares. Be sure to check each market’s website before visiting, since schedules can change at the last minute due to foul weather and updates to public health regulations.
