The Comox Valley Farmers Market has been connecting local producers with the community since 1992. They operate as a not-for-profit society running multiple markets throughout the year; a year-round Saturday market plus seasonal summer markets at different locations in Courtenay and Cumberland. Each market location offers what they describe as a unique experience, though the core focus remains the same: fresh, locally-sourced products from Valley producers.

If you’re looking for local vegetables, fruits, baked goods, crafts, or other regional products, the farmers market is where you’ll find vendors who actually grow or make what they’re selling. It’s one of those community institutions that’s been around long enough to be part of the Valley’s routine; people know when and where to show up for their Saturday market run.

The organization stays active on social media and maintains a website with current schedules and vendor information. For specific market times and locations, check cvfm.ca since the schedule varies between their year-round and seasonal markets.
