The NWFM is excited to unveil our Summer Market Access Program!

Do you sell a delicious product and have been looking for ways to get your products in the hands of local shoppers, receive immediate feedback on your products or test out a new one?  

The New West Farmers Market has launched our Market Access Program applications, which provides FREE booth space, equipment, and mentorship to emerging vendors from underrepresented and marginalized backgrounds. It is aimed to remove the barriers that often prevent local entrepreneurs from launching at farmers markets for sustainable business development. We are specifically looking for prepared food vendors to join our busy summer season – 9 markets throughout July and August! 

If you haven’t been a vendor at the NWFM before and you’d like to become a part of the market community, learn from fellow vendors and build your customer base – apply online today and check “Yes” on in the application, under “Would you like to apply for the Market Access Program?” 

APPLY ONLINE NOW – SPOTS MAY FILL FAST!

The NWFM operates from 3 – 7pm Every Thursday in Tipperary Park. Sign up for 1 day or all of them here: https://newwestfarmers.ca/vendor-application-2025/ or email: info@newwestfarmers.ca for more information!
