We are happy to annouce that the much-loved, mid-summer farmer's market is back on this weekend at Old Faithful. With plenty of amazing vendors in attendance, of course: Nelson the Seagull, Victory Gardens, Le March St. George, Revolver Coffee, Krause Berry Farms, Mikuni Wild Harvest and Earnest Ice Cream. As Gastowners, we feel beyond lucky to get to shop what these talented people have to offer -- what they are growing, creating and crafting in Vancouver: they are just the kind of folk that make this city a better place to live.
