It’s the season of outdoor markets and fresh farm produce, and Athiana Acres is catering to both. The 30-acre regenerative farm in Richmond is officially hosting a weekly market that’s completely free to attend, bringing together Vancouver’s fave local vendors for a day of shopping local, all the while surrounded by blooming flower fields.
With its first market of the season under its belt, the beloved Steveston farm has introduced an elevated farm market experience unlike anything else in the Lower Mainland, according to organizers.
Housed in a clear-top tent completely immersed in the farm’s vibrant flower fields, this covered market brings together the best of the farm’s certified organic produce and florals, alongside a rotating lineup of Vancouver’s fave savoury bites and sweet treats.
