SATURDAY MORNINGS WITH THE PENINSULA’S FINEST!

June 3 – October 7, 2023
OUR NEXT MARKET IS SATURDAY, JUNE 10.
TWO NEW VENDORS ARE JOINING US THIS WEEK: The first is Victoria Cider whose premium English and French cider apples are grown on their farm, surrounding the original 1912 farmhouse. Oh, and that harvest is crushed by family and friends, and the pure juice is hand blended in small batches – truly a farm to bottle process!
Our second new vendor is Stoneborough Family Farm. Located on 10 acres in North Saanich, Stoneborough is a small heritage farm just coming into its potential. They’ll be bringing free-range chicken and duck eggs, strawberries and veggies. (And if you’re a baker: Duck eggs are particularly good for baking as the yolks are richer with a higher fat content than hen eggs and the larger whites will add volume to cakes.)
For entertainment this week, we have the indie world troubadours NICE VERDES!
See you on Saturday!
