Kimberley Farmers’ Market
Kimberley / Kukamaʔnam or ʔaknuqⱡuⱡam ʔamakʔis
Kukamaʔnam or ʔaknuqⱡuⱡam ʔamakʔis - "Land of the Eagle" in Ktunaxa.
An integral part of the community fabric.
Tucked between the Purcell and Rocky Mountains, the pretty little town of Kimberley hosts the Kimberley Farmers’ Market in the heart of its downtown.
Every Thursday evening in the summer, live music permeates the pedestrian-only street as locals, visitors, food producers, and artisans gather just steps from the iconic Platzl and its restaurants and shops. A saunter through the crowd reveals local bakers, farmers, visual artists, ready-to-eat food, and beautifully crafted goods.
More than a market, it’s a lively community meeting place where conversations, activities, talks, stories, and art weave together with fresh produce and handmade creations. Now an integral part of Kimberley’s community fabric, the market is a perfect place to connect, explore, and enjoy the charm of this picturesque mountain town, perfect to kick off the weekend!
We are grateful to be able to live and play here, and would like to acknowledge that Kimberley (k̓ukamaʔnam) and our surrounding lands are located on the unceded traditional territory of the Ktunaxa (? amak?is) Nation.
This market participates in the BC Farmers' Market Nutrition Coupon Program.
