Fall Semester Farmers & Vendors
Take a quick glance and get to know your vendors for the fall semester and then come visit us on Wednesdays 🙂
Please note that this semester we are launching a food security pilot project. Our aim will be to offer students and the community access to affordable, healthy, diverse, pre-cooked meals and sauces ranging from 2.50$ to 7.00$ (+1$ jar deposit).
This semester we welcome Les délices d’épices as our allie and chef who will be preparing and providing the community with most of these meals 🙂 Visit her page to check out her menu which includes soups, curries, salads, stews, and more!

Please note that vendors are subject to change based on their availailities. We are a solidarity market working to transform our campus food system by creating an access point for vendors who meet our mandate for social, environmental, and economic sustainability. By subsidzing most of the costs to attend the market, vendors are able to sell their products to the community for an affordable price thereby creating an access point on campus which at once reduces food insecurity and supports the development of a flourshing alternative local economy.
Anyone interested in volunteering is encouraged to shoot us a message or an email at concordiafarmersmarket@gmail.com OR drop by any Wednesday and ask how you can get involved 😀
Thank you to the Concordia Student Union Sustainability Action Fund Concordia and Concordia Food Coalition for making this market possible!
