What to Expect at the Ladner Village Market
As one of the largest summer markets in Canada west of Ontario, the Ladner Village Market can feature up to 150 vendors on peak days. The market’s theme, Make It, Bake It, Grow It, highlights locally made products, farm-fresh foods and handcrafted goods.
Shoppers can browse an extensive selection of:
- Handmade jewellery, clothing and crafts
- Fresh baked goods and preserves
- Seasonal produce from local farms
- Gourmet and specialty food items
While it includes some farmers’ market elements, Ladner Village Market is more than that, it’s part artisan fair, part food festival and part community gathering. Live music adds to the vibrant atmosphere, drawing thousands of visitors on sunny days.
Why It’s Unique
Unlike traditional farmers’ markets that focus heavily on produce, Ladner Village Market offers a broader variety of products, making it appealing to a wide range of shoppers.
