it would be nice if there were more convenient locations in the halifax sackville bedford areas as going downtown to the brewery or seaport are not an option for most especially if we are not able to get down there. thanks
There is a Farmers Market in Acadia Hall every Saturday from 9-1
Thought it was 8-1 on Saturdays.
Hello Marilyn! This is just our list of market events, and we have many more of our markets to browse through here: https://farmersmarketsnovascotia.ca/find-a-market-new/
As a co-operative, we are not the individuals or organizations starting farmers’ markets. If you’d like to see a farmers’ market in your community, we are here to help!
