White Rock Farmers' Market — Attraction in White Rock

Love this Farmer’s Market!

It was our first time here and we were thoroughly impressed by how many vendors there are, how the outdoor space was utilized, and the variety of vendors and type of goods being sold.

It definitely gets busy, so be prepared for this.

Many people had leashes dogs - don’t really recommend this. I even heard one woman say that it wasn’t ideal that she had her dog along with her and her kids because it was hard to navigate.

The vendors were very friendly and enthusiastic.

Lots of free parking available in the area.

I was surprised however that there wasn’t really any fresh produce - this is what I associate Farmer’s Markets with most and am used to from living in Vancouver and Toronto. There were strawberries, mushrooms, micro greens, lettuce, green onions, spring garlic and rhubarb, but that’s about it. And I didn’t see anyone selling meat other than Stapleton sausages, but you can get those in the grocery store. I love to be able to do grocery shopping at a Farmer’s Market and get from local, small farmers and producers.

All in all, I would say this is more a ‘Market’ than a ‘Farmer’s Market’, but it is definitely worth a visit or two.

Keep your eyes peeled Coconama hand made truffles - she does gluten free and dairy free/vegan options, Marie’s Guilt Free Bakery - also has gluten free and vegan options, and Nina’s Pierogi’s - gluten free + vegan options as well. YOU WON’T BE...

The market located on Russel avenue in white rock is open on Sundays from mid April to mid October.

It starts at 10am to 2pm rain or shine. At the market you will find fresh produce, baked goods, hand made crafts, apothecary, spices and many other things. Live performances also take place during the market hours.

There is ample parking located around the venue and a portion of Russel avenue is blocked off just for the market as it is only foot traffic.

The market does get busy and some of the more popular stands will have line ups. Definitely a fun way to spend a Sunday morning.

Check it out, never know what you...

Very nice place to visit, with a overall good selection on products and food. Prices are reasonable, especially with all the inflations going on right now. In general it might be better to arrive right when it opens, that way you can spend more time looking around, cause the operation hours here are little. This is a good place to support your local community. Will be back...
