A List of Kelowna’s Craft & Farmers’ Markets 2020

A List of Kelowna’s Craft & Farmers’ Markets 2020

This list of Kelowna’s Craft Markets is ongoing and continuously updated. If you are hosting a market, virtually or physically this year please let me know and I will add you. We are all in this together and I firmly believe in supporting my community during these unprecedented times.


Here in Kelowna we have so many markets to help you support local artisans, crafters and small local businesses. Manoeuvre through them all with this continuously updated guide so you can shop local and support local no matter the season!

Kelowna Farmers’ Market – You can attend the Kelowna Farmers’ Market reliably on Saturdays at the Springfield location from May to October but during the winter it moves indoors to the Parkinson Recreation Centre (November to March).

    My late sister bought a pewter bracelet and earrings with inter-changeable fobs. I inherited it when she passed and would like to purchase extra inserts. It has a magnetic clasp. I just love it. She has The Tree of Life in white and black, and also some with rhinestones and an anchor motif. If I could reach the artist, I would be most grateful. Thank you in advance. I believe she purchsed it at an artisan market in or near Kelown.

      If it was purchase at the Kelowna Farmers’ Market, I’d have a look at the website directly as they have a list of vendors. Otherwise, you could also look through their social media where they would showcase each vendor and their work. There have been some changes over the years so it could be possible that the vendor is no longer there. I’ll have a peak next time I am at the market – could you email me a picture of the bracelet?

      Thank you,
      Murissa
