Powell River Farmers' Market

This Farmers’ Market offers a unique experience with a permanent outdoor marketplace during the spring/summer including vendor booths, a food barn, a bandshell for local music and a miniature train that runs during the Sunday market. You will find fresh, locally grown produce, meats and eggs as well as fresh baking and preserves. There’s plenty of ready to eat food to keep you satisfied as you listen to live music, enjoy local craftspeople and relax around the stage or the children’s sandbox. For a relaxing experience to help you get a good sense of what our community feels like, join us from May-Sept on Saturdays from 10:30 am – 12:30 pm and year round on Sundays from 12:30 pm – 2:30pm at 4365 McLeod Road. Plenty of parking available including 10 handicap spots close to the entrance.

Mission

Farmers markets are an ancient method used by farmers worldwide to sell their produce directly to consumers. It gives farmers the opportunity to get involved with their community and hear feedback from their customers, while avoiding the cost of a middleman. Consumers also enjoy a chance to be connected to the source of their food and ask questions directly to the farmers about how the produce was grown and how it can be prepared. For farmers and consumers alike, farmers markets are a social place to celebrate food, sustainability and a healthy lifestyle, all while enjoying the atmosphere.
