Excitement is in the air today! Firstly, we’re back at it this Saturday, September 5th.

Secondly, we have a new vendor joining us; Gluten Free by the Sea. You may have met Katrina and Hardy already in the Kids Market Club tent or around the market. As soon as they moved to the area Katrina and Hardy wanted to contribute.
They spotted a need in the community and are answering the call, so anyone looking for quality European style gluten free bread and more made only with the best ingredients should come check out their offerings from 9 till noon on Saturday at Forest Ridge Academy, 59 Forest View Drive, Barrington. Let’s help make their debut a big success!

If the weather is anything like today you’ll find all of us snuggly set up inside the school, which brings us to the third reason we’re excited; we’ve accepted a builder’s quote for the Barrington Farmers Market Pavilion.

To say we look forward to being able to set up inside our own dedicated building in the near future is a huge understatement, and we can’t wait to see our vision become reality for the community.

For those not yet in the know, the Municipality of Barrington has been supporting us in our quest to have a pavilion style building constructed, not just for the market, but for other events as well, such as live music performances, theatre, or anything else that suits the venue.

The municipality has already allocated a spot for it on Sherose Island, our original home and where the Barrington Farmers’ Market started, which is very generous of them.

We’ll be close to the Barrington Sunshine Garden, and we’ll be included in all the other goings on throughout the season on Sherose Island again. We miss those events and can’t wait to be in the middle of it all, but with a proper covered structure; no more foul balls from the baseball field to worry about either, and that makes us happy.

We’ve included some mock-up images of what the pavilion will look like, and would love to hear what you think of our proposed new digs.
We look forward to breaking ground and we will keep updating you as things progress.

In the meantime we appreciate all of you who have been coming to see us at our temporary hangout at Forest Ridge, which is a wonderful venue, and has served us so well in the interim.

Only three more markets this season, so let’s make each one wonderful!

Hi folks, here’s just a friendly reminder that your favourite local market, the Barrington Farmers’ Market 😊 won’t be operating tomorrow (August 29th), but we’ll be in full swing next weekend, so come see us September 5th from 9-12 at Forest Ridge Academy.

In the meantime go enjoy the Exhibition; on right now!
The weather looks beautiful for the parade tomorrow.

So go and squeeze every last bit of goodness out of the tail end of summer if you can, because soon the kids will be returning to school and we’ll have to wait until next year to do it all again.

Everyone at the Barrington Farmers market wishes all students, staff and support staff a safe school year.

Attention all valued customers of the Barrington Farmers’ Market.

We’re letting everyone know well in advance that next Saturday’s market (August 29th) is cancelled due to planned road closures and the parade that will be happening that day.

Unfortunately due to the road closures our location at Forest Ridge Academy will be blocked off, so as a result we will not be setting up that day.

There’ll be repeated posts about this all week so that our regular attendees will be notified well in advance. Please share this information!!

We apologize for this inconvenience, and we look forward to seeing everyone Saturday September 5th.

Rain or shine, there’ll be something for everyone again tomorrow.

Sourdough flavour of the week is pumpkin spice. Too early for fall for you? Don’t fret, Alyssa has all her other flavours and treats baking for tomorrow.

What are your plans for Saturday morning?

Let’s all make some time to support our local makers, bakers and growers at the Barrington Farmers’ Market from 9-12 at Forest Ridge Academy.

Rain or shine!!!

There is sure to be an abundance of fresh homemade goodies, beautiful crafts and skin care products, as well as fresh fruits and vegetables from Nova Scotian farms.

We can’t believe it, but we’re on the tail end of the 2026 season, so come enjoy it while it lasts, as our last market of the season will be on September 19th!

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us again this year, you are appreciated more than you’ll ever know.

After the market season your board of executives will keep on keeping on with the planning for the new building on Sherose Island. We’re already excited for next year, and hope you are, too.

We’ll keep you in the loop right here with any new exciting developments.

See you at the market!
