While at the Market for the Zucchini Races, come and be a judge at our 1st ever Cook Off! We will have dueling chefs trying to out-cook each other, with you as the judge. Come and sample some amazing food prepared from talented local chefs and cast your vote. Voting closes at 1pm with the winner announced shortly afterwards. More details to follow. We are located on Bryn Maur Road in the heart of downtown Langford on a quaint cobblestoned street inspired by those in the Netherlands known as "woonerfs". It was designed more for pedestrian traffic than cars - the perfect Market location! The goal of the Market is to support and promote a sustainable and vibrant local agricultural industry and artisan community by providing an outlet for the sale of locally-grown and locally-processed agricultural products and artisan crafts. The Market also provides the opportunity for local musicians and entertainers to perform and local non-profit groups to tell their community story.

We are planning more events, more vendors, more local produce, more local crafts, more local entertainment and more local food for 2010!
§ Market Recipes: ever wonder what to do with all the great produce you find at the Market? We will be collecting tasty and easy recipes from farmers and customers to share with you. Do you have your own favorite recipe you'd like to share? Send it in to info@goldstreamstationmarket.ca and we will add it to our Market Recipes!
Plan on coming early and spend some time browsing the great selection of produce, crafts, and food. You can also grab some coffee or snacks from one of the two coffee shops (Vanilla Cream Cafe and Mirage Coffee) with patio seating right next door and enjoy the music!

§ Market Bags: Hugely successful in 2009, the Market Bag program will continue in 2010. Market Bags are free, re-usable tote bags donated by shoppers for shoppers who forget their bags and are an alternative to using plastic bags. Just grab one when you need one, and return it the next week for another Market customer! We are always seeking donations of additional tote bags: please collect any recyclable tote or cloth bags (or even tank tops which are converted into “Tank Totes”) and bring them to the Information Booth during the market season.
