Feb. 6, 2024 – The City is calling on new farmers and producers to apply for a space at
the 2024 St. Catharines Farmers Market.
Every spring, the market expands to include outdoor spaces from May to October,
welcoming back farmers for the main harvest season. Periodically on Saturdays
throughout the summer, the outdoor market also features local musicians, plus an
interactive community engagement table with free and fun experiences for all ages.
“We really want to focus on building the sustainability of our agricultural sector by
bringing on more local farmers and producers this year,” said Community and Market
Coordinator Deanna Chakarova. “One of the best features of the market is the
interaction customers have with vendors who grow and produce their own products. We
have some incredible farmers and vendors in our community who offer high-quality
locally made products, and we would love to see them join our market community.”
Farmers Market vendors and producers can apply for a market stall at
stcatharines.ca/VendorApplication anytime before March 4 to receive priority screening.
More details on the market, including a list of existing vendors, rules and regulations,
selection criteria and market stall rental rates can be found at
stcatharines.ca/FarmersMarket.
The St. Catharines Farmers Market is open on Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and
Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., from February through December. The Market extends
outside on Saturdays, from mid-May to mid-Oct.
