Do you have any suggestions for this year's Winter Market at Riley Park?

Adequate parking its required. The new pool is so busy that in conjunction with a Farmers Market it may be too troublesome to go to the Farmers Market.

Advertise!!!!

apple chips vendor (they were at the UBC apple Festival), Roaming Dragon Food truck (they were at the (richmond night market). Local artist and designers for Christmas shopping

Complimentary Hot Chocolate

free hot apple cider for customers and vendors, heaters for vendors, buskers, an inside location would be better for all

fruit/veg sold by the case for those who want to buy in bulk for a good discount.

Gluten free snacks!

Good signage - perhaps even going up the day before - so people remember that it is happening

hot chocolate

I'm new to the area and was not aware of a farmers market in the area. A little more marketing would go a long way

I'm so excited we're going to have market in the neighbourhood again!

Just heard about this. It's on like donkey kong.

Locally made foods and craft items make great Christmas and holiday gifts. I recommend a selection for the Winter Market....

Looking forward to having a winter farmer's market. want to see food items, arts & crafts. thanks!

Looking forward to seeing what's on offer. I think it will be very nice for the community and also a destination.

lots of vendors please! Also, would appreciate it if there could be vendors selling cooked hot food while customers shop.

love the market at this location

Make it summer too! Too harsh riding especially with kids to the new local.

mulled wine and cider bar please!

really excited that the market is back!

We just moved to the area and didn't know there still was a summer market at Riley Park.

Would like to see more local greenhouse grown products at the market.

The Winter Market is wonderful! Now bring back the Summer Market to Riley Park, I miss it in my neighborhood, and have only been once to the Terminal Station area. Instead of destroying the old Riley Park Rec Centre, have the Market there year round! It would free up parking and the Market could grow to accommodate more vendors. Wouldn't it be awesome to have an Inner City neighborhood venue to hold the Market year round!
