温哥华岛农贸市场
岛上的农贸市场每年夏天都是非常吸引本地或外来游客。在农民市场里你能购买到本地制作的咖啡，烘培，果酱，蜂蜜，珠宝，陶器，纺织品，植物，花卉，葡萄酒，肉类和蔬菜水果等特色农产品。很多时候，你会发现一些你在普通超市里面看不到的水果和蔬菜：红胡萝卜，Rainbows 西红柿，紫花菜，青蒜，心里甜（紫心萝卜）等等。这里的食物和食材都是尽可能来自当地农场，保证新鲜。同时农贸市场里的农民，牧场主，屠夫，渔民和工匠都是对他们的食材和烹调充满激情，在购买他们的产品时候都会大量的分享如何烹饪等免费建议。农贸市场和国内菜市场不太一样，因为这些农贸市场并非每天都有，他们大部分都只会在周末开放。其实这里比较像给这些农主一个平台分享自己的劳动成果和兴趣。如果你们也有兴趣，不妨这夏天找时间去看看以下几个特别的农贸市场，感受一下岛上的风土人情。
March Market Report
As we enter the spring market we will see an increase in activity. We did see home sales drop slightly in March and April 2018, likely due to a combination of government policy changes, stricter mortgage qualification rules, and consumer uncertainty surrounding new provincial taxes. Last month, 399 single-family homes sold on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) compared to 316 in February and 482 one year ago in the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board.
Vancouver Island Farmers’ Markets
Savoring produce at the peak of freshness, meeting the people who raise and grow your food, and admiring the wares of talented artisans and craftspeople; there are countless reasons for supporting our Island’s Farmers’ Markets. Listen to live music while you shop for locally made coffee, baking, jams & jellies, honey, jewellery, pottery, textiles, plants, flowers, wine, meat, and exceptional produce! At the Farmers’ Market, you’ll find an amazing array of fruits and vegetables that you don’t see in your average supermarket: red carrots, rainbows of heirloom tomatoes, purple cauliflower, green garlic, watermelon radishes, and more. Food as real as it gets—fresh from the farm, and an added bonus, these farmers, ranchers, butchers, fisherman and artisans are also passionate cooks; who better to give plenty of free advice about how to cook the foods they are selling.
