There are many fabulous food producers in and around Calgary, and the city’s many seasonal farmers markets allow us to take advantage of their products when they’re at their absolute freshest! (If you’re reading this between October and May, or looking for indoor markets, like the Calgary Farmers Market, see the Year-Round Farmers Market Guide.) You can also check out our Calgary Night Markets Guide for a different type of market. Visiting a farmers market is a community event, a chance to buy the freshest local produce, and sometimes, an opportunity for family fun, with live music or activities.
If you don’t want to head to a physical market, check out the Alberta start-up, CultivatR. It directly supports Albertan producers by delivering goods straight from the farm to your door. You can check them out HERE.
We’ve included all the Alberta-approved, Sunnygirl markets we could find (where 80% of vendors are local, offering a product that’s ‘made, baked, or grown’ in Alberta), but we’ve thrown in a few extra markets, too. Here’s a round-up of some of Calgary and the area’s finest seasonal farmers markets.
