Celebrate Canada Day with the best of B.C. agriculture.
With the farmers’ market season in full swing, Agriculture and Lands Minister Steve Thomson is encouraging British Columbians to take advantage of the opportunity to buy fresh local products.
“Shopping at farmers’ markets is great for your health and the environment, and it supports farm families and the local economy,” said Thomson. “Canada Day is a perfect time to get out and sample the unique and diverse variety of agricultural products grown in B.C.”
