Old Strathcona Farmers' Market

Finally made the drive from Wainwright. My first time visiting OSFM was at 11am on Saturday, quite busy but still a lot of room to browse. The vendors are incredibly knowledgeable about their products and their passion is evident. Despite the customer traffic, all the interactions with vendors were genuine and not at all rushed. Great quality products that aren’t overpriced at all for what you receive. Lots of samples and seating areas. A few of the wonderful booths/products I purchased from were soy candles, uncle Brian’s sausages, a sourdough chocolate croissant, and locally smoked peppercorns. I can’t wait to go back!

At my first time here, this place is very crowded. so many people here. This place open every Saturday 8AM- 3PM. There are many Great fresh organic fruit and vegetables. You can try many sample that vendors offered. Not only food, there were also some hand made goods, crafts, and other unique items. There is a washroom in the back of this market. Many items are quite expensive but its worth. There is a parking lot across the street offering 2 hours free parking.

Lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. Have some interesting vendors with foods that we aren't aware of. Bought some Jamaican chilli sauce, fruits and vegetables. Got 2 hrs free parking across the street.

I came from Ontario and have been to a couple markets in Canada this is small and packed but unique

You will like it if you believe in promoting local flavors, produce and home made items. The place is big but get very crowded. Items are expensive but worth promoting home grown businesses. Everything looks very appealing. Keep a track of your spending as u can easily spend hundreds if u don’t watch ur spending. I didn’t find fresh berries during my visit and it was the only disappointment. There is a parking lot across the street offering 2 hours free parking in case parking is your concern.

What a FABULOUS way to spend my birthday roaming the wonderful Scona Market!! Such a lively market with so many things to see!! So many interesting booths to buy from!! The treats! Veggies! Jewelry! and so much more!! Wow wow!! It wasn't overly busy the last hour we caught of the market which was great!! People were friendly and happy so we enjoyed our walk around!

First time visiting this Farmers Market and was it ever busy. Great destination if you love fresh organic fruit, meat and vegetables. An assortment of fresh baked goods and dessert. Many vendors offered samples which was a great way to try them. There were some vendors selling hand made goods such as jewelry, bags and other unique items. Open Saturdays 8am-3pm only. There is a small cafe that serves up foods sold at the market for reasonable prices but service is a bit slow since it’s the only place that is a restaurant. One washroom located near the cafe so it was busy as well. They do have an app you can download to find the list of vendors at the market.

As Shakespeare would say.. "Verily, the Old Strathcona Farmer's Market doth present itself as a delightful trove of fresh harvest, dairy, and rustic comestibles. This lively marketplace doth exude an earthly plenty, proffering an array of untainted farm-fresh provisions that would set any gastronome's heart aflutter. From crisped, locally sown vegetables to luscious, handcrafted cheeses, the excellence and diversity presented are beyond compare. What distinguishes this emporium is its close kinship to the yeomen who labor to bring forth these doleful yet exquisite offerings. Handcrafted soap, like artisanal alchemy, doth cleanse and soothe. Fine wines and delectable deli fare, a feast fit for royalty, await thee. 'Tis an earthly abundance that speaks of toil by honest yeomen, who bring forth these wares with melancholic devotion. Verily, this market invites thee to partake in the fruits of their labor, forging connections and gratitude for life's simple pleasures. A must-visit, where the earth's rich offerings sing in sweet harmony. One canst commune with those very hands that till the soil, cultivating a sense of fellowship and thanksgiving for life's humble pleasures. A pilgrimage it must be for all who yearn for an unblemished taste of virtuous sustenance "
