“Farm Market is stocked with a flavourful selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, preserves, honey, hard ice-cream, fresh pies, 100% pure apple juice; they invite you to ‘Come taste the difference’ in over 40 varieties of modern and heritage apple varieties grown in the orchards. Tour the extensive gardens and pick your own flowers for bouquets for special occasions or everyday. School children from all over take part in the educational orchard tours offered each autumn, and in late September the Hanna family hosts “APPLE FEST”~a celebration of ‘everything apple’ featuring something fun for every member of the family to do. A beautiful selection of giftware and local crafts make visiting Hanna and Hanna Orchards Farm Market a memorable stop.”

Comox Valley Farmer’s Market

Comox, Vancouver Island

” …over 80 farmers, fishers, and bakers bring their locally-produced products to market.
Why it pays to visit the Comox Valley Farmers’ Market…
• The food is at its freshest because it doesn’t have to travel hundreds of miles to get to you.
• Local producers can select their produce varieties for taste, rather than their ability to travel.
• You can help ensure that local farmland will stay in production.
• You can talk to the people who grow or make your food and they can and will respond to your needs, tastes, and questions.
• More than a marketplace, it’s a social gathering where friends and families meet.”
