Learn about local groups and organizations in the Niagara Region in our Community Engagement Series at the Farmers Market!

Organizations and groups attend the market year-round both on Thursdays and Saturdays connecting you with the community. Visitors have an opportunity to learn about culture and recreation from performances from local vocal groups, drumming demonstrations by members of First Nations, or the spinning the wheel of fun with Brock.

On Saturdays during the main market season (mid-May to mid-October), you will find a large variety of organizations in the outside market area. Outside of the main market season, you can find the organizations set up inside Market Square both on selected Thursdays and Saturdays.

Is your organization interested in participating? Complete our online form. Applications are accepted based on availability.
