 Our weekly not-for-profit Government of Alberta certified Alberta Approved Farmers Markets is home to more local farmers, food makers and craft artisans than ever before! Over 90% of what you'll find at the market every week is locally made, baked and grown by our market vendors themselves - with most originating no farther than 100km from the market - making it easier than ever to eat and support local, and take meaningful steps toward reducing your food miles and supporting a sustainable local food system.

​

We are also happy to offer a Community Booth at our markets, where visitors can connect and learn about local initiatives and the important work local charities and non-profit service groups are doing in our communities.  

​

As always, our farmers markets welcome everyone to gather together with community, connect with friends and neighbours, and enjoy amazing live music on our market stages.

​

Our organization, the Calgary Earth Market Society, is a grassroots nonprofit founded by local community members and vendors for the sole purpose of establishing and operating vibrant and viable Alberta Approved Farmers Markets in Calgary. We rely on the smallest possible vendor rents, a 1 full-time Market Manger, and volunteers, along with essential venue and program partnerships, community donations, and grants in order to operate. Any and all proceeds go directly back into supporting and growing our markets and programs for the benefit of local farmers & makers, and the community at large. If you or your organization would like to support what we do, please email us, or donate directly here.

We are so very grateful for your continued support, and are so happy to have you join us in Feeding Community and Culture in Calgary!
