After the clean up join us for lunch and prizes. The East Vancouver Farmers' Market brings the fresh taste of summer from our local farms into the heart of the city. Come on out and meet your neighbours in a fun for the family community even while sampling and buying time-tested and new luscious food items and quality crafted gifts directly from the people who make, bake, grow or raise them. Please respect our neighbours and park two blocks away - under the Skytrain guideway or at the Croatian Cultural Centre parking lot. The Vancouver Environmental Information Centre offers a wide range of documentation and practical advice to help you protect the planet.
