SATURDAY MORNINGS WITH THE PENINSULA’S FINEST!

See you here every Saturday till October 12!

Welcome to the golden sun and shortening days of September. It’s time to think about stocking up and preserving the harvest, and the flavours and colours of fall fruits and vegetables are plentiful and perfect right now.   DON’T FORGET THAT THE MARKET RUNS UNTIL THANKSGIVING WEEKEND AND THERE ARE STILL 5 MORE MARKETS TO FILL YOUR PANTRY WITH THE BEST OF LOCAL FOOD!

Stephen from LITTLE MAPLE is away again this week, but ABIELLE AMOUR APIARY is back with their unique and delicious honey flavours.  LITTLE ACRE SOAP will be at the market with hand-made natural products for bath, body and home.

We’re welcoming back  GORD PHILLIPS as our entertainer this week.  Gord is a regular at the Sooke Music Festival, and we’re excited to have him back out at our market!
