The Nakusp's 50 Mile Year Round Market focuses on local to support the truly remote food producers and artisans in the area. Vendors offer fresh produce, apple cider, handcrafted art, and hot meals from the repurposed community kitchen.
The BCAFM is here to serve the needs of our member farmers’ markets. We are committed to developing and strengthening the capacity of farmers' markets in all regions of British Columbia, so you, our members can continue to support local farmers and artisans and provide British Columbians with fresh healthy local food.
