There was so much culture at this market I could've shopped all day. One stand with the freshest maple syrup (with taste testers), native art made my local natives, local artists displaying a variety of mediums they use, local novelists, bakers, canners, weavers, the list goes on and on. One of the most versatile markets I've been to.
4. Wolfville Farmers Market
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 119 reviews
Started in 1992 with three vendors in a parking lot, we are now a year-round market on Saturdays with over 70 farmers, chefs and artisan vendors. We transformed a turn of the century apple warehouse into our 9000 square foot Market home in 2010. Wolfville Farmers’ Market offers three unique shopping experiences for people looking for local awesomeness. As a farmers’ market and given the need for social distancing, we knew it would be essential for us to do more to increase opportunities to access all the amazing products from our farmers, chefs and artisans. Our answer to the challenge has been to plan for three unique shopping experiences, each allowing a distinct way for you to access local: Our Saturday Market, our online store WFM2Go and new to the season, a Farm and Art Market Store.

This little town market has it all. Fresh produce, seafood and meats. If you are hungry, there are several vendors that can tempt your appetite with a variety of offerings, from donuts, cakes and cookies to sandwiches, and even curry. There are lots of local crafters to browse including jams, jellies, wines, hot sauces and even local grown flowers to brighten your home. Glad we had the opportunity to wander through, while on our short stay.

A Must Go experience. Farmers and craftspeople from all over Nova Scotia bring their wares here weekly. I was here in november and the varieties of apples were eye-popping. I found wonderful art work as affordable cards and postcards, fine wood work, beeswax wraps, food galore especially lobster rolls. Take time to talk with the sellers - everyone i spoke with had interesting stories to tell!
