The City of New Westminster recently proclaimed it Farmers Market Month in the Royal City. We are absolutely thrilled! We’re kicking off a month of special planning and have some tricks up our sleeves. You’ll have to come and check it out!
Did you know that RCFM offers a kids’ toy area at every market? We have selected a number of creative, free play, safe toys for kids of all ages with the help of toy experts and RCFM business supporter, Pedagogy Toys. These toys are available in the grassy area just east of the market as long as it’s not pouring.
We also offer free drinking water at every market at our info tent at the top of the market – clean, wonderful, New Westminster tap water is free for the taking. We encourage you to bring your own container, but if you forget, we do offer compostable and recyclable BioCups.
