Vancouver's Farmer's Markets
|
Vancouver's farmer's markets have food trucks that sell locally grown vegetables and fruit, meat and seafood from local ranchers and fishermen, artisan cheese and bread, herbs and seasonal nursery items, baked goods, prepared foods and artisanal craft.
Though the produce can sometimes be a bit on the pricier side, farmer's markets have great community vibe, and often there's live music.
