It has been an emotional weekend! We are rolling into our 25th year as vendors at the Ladner Village Market. We often forget to celebrate our milestones but this one is hitting us like a tonne of bricks! 25 YEARS ๐คฏ In all these years we have not missed one Market day. Not one. In the Summer of 2001 we started and we were the youngest vendors to sign up! We have been promoting the importance and excitement of buying local the majority of our adolescence and adulthood. Our calling to agriculture wasnโt always obvious but completely undeniable as the years went on. Our communities of Ladner and Tsawwassen have watched us grow up- from selling corn from our dads truck on Arthur Drive (because we couldnโt drive yet lol) to the Ladner Village Market. The support we received and our growth got us to open our own farm business โBackroads Marketโ where we have been located and open seasonally since 2014. This progression over 25 years is something for all of us to celebrate, THANK YOU for supporting us and showing how important local farmers are to this community- now more than ever!
We wouldnโt be here without YOU.
