It must be spring.

Be prepared to enjoy yourself.

There’s fun and unique attractions for an entire 22 weeks, each Sunday from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.

Each market day is different, depending on what’s in season for the many farmers, and what’s new with the many artists and vendors who bring you their very best.

There’ll be lots of different vendors all summer, everything from hand-painted furniture to glass works, from metal art to smoked fish, from stone work to garden decorations, it’s all here.

That’s without mentioning the bakers and their fresh bread and pastries, the seafood, the certified organic beef, lamb and poultry and that wonderful line-up of free musical entertainment, someone different each week.

This market was once described as “Campbell River’s own social network” and how true that is.  It’s a wonderful opportunity to come down and meet your friends over fresh coffee or a cup of tea, down at a fabulous ocean front location.

Feel like a Sunday walk?

Don’t stay home and be left out. Join the rest of the town down at the Pier Street Farmers Market.  Look them up online at pierstreet.com.

They’re coming back on Sunday, May 1.
