Tips for Shoppers – Capital Region Farmers Market

We know our Farmers Market inside out, and we’re here to help make your experience the best each week. So here’s a few helpful tips for you, whether you’re a regular or just starting out:

Get in early – our growers and makers arrive early and would love to see you. And sometimes the very best of the produce goes quick!
Get around – sure you have your favourite growers, but make a point of meeting someone new each visit. You may stumble across even more great produce, and we really are a lovely bunch of people.
Do your homework – find out what’s in season and what’s on at the Market by subscribing to our monthly enewsletter and checking out the News section of this site.
Be kind to the environment – bring your shopping bags from home, or buy one of our environmentally friendly shopping bags from the Rotary Helpdesk near the front entrance.
Be a stayer – some of the best bargains can be found at closing time, so stick around
No Dogs – we do love our furry friends however we want to keep our shed area as accessible as possible for everyone to get around. Dogs are not allowed within the market area however are welcome to hang out in the adjacent park areas.
