Since it first opened in April 2011, the Calgary Farmer’s Market has become a local favourite to pick up organic fruits and vegetables, specialty foods or to just enjoy a relaxing afternoon lunch with a friend.
The Calgary Farmer’s Market is a bright and open place to wonder around, with a lively atmosphere and numerous eclectic vendors. The market is very family friendly with an interactive children’s play area, stroller parking and large food court.
Don’t miss out on tasting a delicious Simple Simon pie, award winning slice of Gouda from Sylvan Star Cheese (a personal favourite) or world-famous Saskatoon pie from the Saskatoon Farm. Absolutely stop for a super yummy treat at the Buttercream Bake Shoppe and top if off with a fresh gourmet brewed coffee from Perk ‘n Beans.
With 80 vendors to choose from you can spend a good part of the day taking in all the sights and smells. There’s pottery, international and speciality food, meat and poultry, art and flowers. More unusual and specialty vendors include Olson’s High Country Free-Range Bison, Buzz Honey and the Silk Road Spice Merchant.
Open year round Thursday to Sunday, take an afternoon, grab your family or friends and spend a few enjoyable hours at the Calgary Farmer’s Market.
Additional markets in Calgary include the new Calgary West Country Market near Calaway Park, the Kingsland Farmers Market on McLeod Trail and the Crossroads Market off Blackfoot Trail.
