ENJOY FOOD THAT JUST TASTES BETTER
Farmers’ markets support smaller producers who handpick varieties like for their adaptability to your region, for their culinary uses, and for their flavour, aroma, and texture. Artisan makers and bakers prepare products fresh and sell direct from their kitchen to yours. This is why farmers’ markets carry unique types of produce, meat, and dairy that always tastes so fresh and full of flavour.
MAKE AN ECONOMIC IMPACT
Buying directly from local farmers, ranchers, and food producers gives them a better return for their product and keeps dollars in the local economy. One University of California Davis study states direct sales at farmers’ markets can generate as much as twice as much economic activity in the region. That’s a huge impact!
BE ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS
According to the BC Association of Farmers’ Markets, the average North American meal contains ingredients travelling 2400 km from five different countries. However, food grown and made closer to home produces fewer transportation emissions and as the distance food travels decreases, so does the need for processing and refrigeration to reduce spoilage. Shopping at farmers’ markets can directly decrease your carbon footprint.
