With summer farmers’ markets wrapping up across the Lower Mainland, Richmond is getting ready to welcome the Steveston winter food and artisan market later this month.
On Oct. 21, Steveston’s annual market is scheduled to open with locally baked, grown, caught and crafted products for sale.
Operated by the Gulf of Georgia Cannery Society, the market will also host seasonal events and local performers during its run from October through April.
This year, the market is also partnering with Richmond Food Security Society to present a series of food skills workshops covering topics such as fish, holiday leftovers and healthy snacks. In December, Steveston’s Festival of Trees will be on display.
Admission to the Cannery is free on market Sundays and guided tours are available by donation.
