Kelowna Farmers’ and Crafters’ Market

One of the highlights of my recent trip to Kelowna was an early morning spent wandering the Kelowna Farmers and Crafters Market. Many of you will know from reading regularly that one of my favourite things to do when I travel is to seek out the local markets so I was excited to check out British Columbia’s largest farmers’ and crafters’ market.

Originally started in 1995 with just a handful of vendors, the market has grown and today boasts around 150 vendors.

We arrived around 8.30am and the market wasn’t too busy although later in the morning (and later in the season) it can apparently get very crowded. If you’re after something in particular that might not be in plentiful supply, you will definitely want to get there early.

Offering a wide variety of farm products, organic produce and local artisinal products, the Market is also home to food booths including baked goods, organic meats and preserves.

Even if you’re just in town for a few days and have no way of cooking or preparing any fresh foods, you’ll definitely want to take a stroll through the market – it’s a feast for the eyes.
