Farmers' Markets in the Kootenays
Farmers' Markets in the Kootenays
We attend farmers' markets in our region on a regular basis both in the summer and winter. For us farmers' markets are the best way to connect with our customers. We get to know people face to face while we learn about their cut preferences and their favourite way to cook a pork shoulder roast. People get the opportunity to get to know us better by asking questions and learning about all of the different products we offer (and our favourite ways to cook, too!).
We attend markets in Creston, Rossland and Nelson on a regular basis, and you can catch us at select Fernie markets too!
