A real-world opportunity to support real-world farm students.
This relatively young farmers’ market has made an immediate impact in the community it inhabits. The result of the Sustainable Agriculture and Farm School programs at the nearby Kwantlen Polytechnic University, the Kwantlen Farmers’ Market in Richmond provides a real-world opportunity for students to hone their own agricultural business within the local community.
In addition to the farm fresh produce grown by the Kwantlen Student Association members, locals enjoy live entertainment and kids workshops, in addition to artisan foods and inspiring chef demonstrations using produce from the market.
We acknowledge that the Kwantlen St. Market is on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam, Tsawwassen and Kwantlen First Nations.
This market participates in the BC Farmers' Market Nutrition Coupon Program.
