Kimberley Farmers' Market: Winter Edition

The festive times have returned! 

We’re excited to announce our second annual Kimberley Farmers’ Market: Winter Edition this holiday season.

Fresh food from local farmers and producers, crafts from local artisans, delicious treats, and inclusive experiences for the whole family are going to be served up for one weekend only — now with an indoor space to keep warm!

Wildsight supports a sustainable community that is economically, socially, and environmentally healthy and resilient. The Kimberley Farmers’ Market began in 2014 as part of Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook’s food sustainability initiative in response to the community’s desire for direct access to locally harvested and sustainable food. The market is a venue for small-scale farmers and specialty food producers to market their wares and nourishes to the community through a vibrant and inclusive marketplace.

We are looking forward to sharing another merry market with you all!
