Fraser River Discovery Centre

June 19, 2009 By newwestfarmers

At our opening market, you’ll see a booth from the Fraser River Discovery Centre. New Westminster exists because of the mighty Fraser, and the FRDC strives to educate you on everything Fraser. They’re bringing a fish kite craft for kids and a learning booth and will be on hand to answer all your questions.

“Running from the Rockies to the Pacific Ocean, the Fraser River has shaped the province of BC. Learn about the ecology, the history, the culture, the communities and the industry of the Mighty Fraser River! Not far from the Expo Skytrain line, and along the boardwalk at New Westminster Quay, the Fraser River Discovery Centre features a gift shop, a large exhibit gallery, a theatre and a full range of public and school programs.”

The Fraser River Discovery Centre is located right on (what else) the Fraser, at the Quay, at 788 Quayside Drive.

Land Acknowledgement

Our market is grateful to operate on the unceded land of the Qayqayt, Kwikwetlem, and other Halkomelem speaking Peoples. We acknowledge that colonialism has made invisible their histories and connections to the land. We acknowledge the incredible gift this land is to our market and BC Agriculture. We commit to the ongoing work of decolonization and allyship.
