Powell River Farmers Institute welcomes you to explore our web-site, receive a monthly newsletter, attend meetings and special events and network with us.
The PR Farmers Institute Markets Committee, in collaboration with Jesse Black (manager of the Open Air Market), are conducting a survey on how to improve our current farmers market and see if there is enough interest to run a mid-week market in a more central location. We’d like your opinion as customers and potential vendors! To participate in the survey go to:
For potential vendors: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MYMRSYM
For customers: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MDN7RMG
If you know someone without access to the internet who would like to participate, the survey will be available in printed format at:
- The Farmers Market information booth
- The library
- Rainbow Valley feed store
Please let us know what you think by June 1, 2012 and thank-you for participating in our survey

In 1915, thirty-two farmers in the Powell River area, founded a Farmers’ Institute “to improve conditions of rural life so that settlement may be permanent and prosperous.” This remains our goal today.
