Langley’s agricultural community spans one-third of our city, comprising over 1,200 working farms. We’ve got farmers’ markets, farm stores, and pick-your-own experiences that bring fresh, local food straight to your table year-round.
Weekly Farmers Markets
The Langley Community Farmers Market runs on Saturdays from 9 am to 3 pm at the Timms Community Centre. This is our primary weekend market where you’ll find the freshest seasonal produce and connect directly with our incredible local growers.
The Fort Langley Farmers Market operates every Sunday from 10 am to 3 pm, featuring amazing vendors and the charming historic village atmosphere that makes shopping a delightful family experience.
Murrayville Farmers Market brings special evening market vibes every Thursday, 3-7 pm, transforming Murrayville Square into a welcoming community gathering during the growing season.
We recommend arriving right at opening time for the best selection. Those perfect strawberries and seasonal vegetables from our local farms sell out quickly, and you’ll experience the excellent community connections before the markets get busier later in the day.

Questions Often Asked
Is It Cheaper to Buy From Local Farmers?
Yes, buying from local farmers often costs less than buying from supermarkets.
We regularly find local farmers offer better prices than big retailers, particularly when produce is in season. When you buy in bulk, join a CSA programmes, or shop at farmers’ markets, you’re saving money while supporting your local farming community.
Why You Should Shop at a Local Farmers’ Market?
Shopping at your local farmers’ market strengthens community bonds while giving you fresher, tastier food that hasn’t travelled far. You’re directly supporting your neighbours, reducing environmental impact, and getting seasonal produce at its peak quality.
What’s the Best Time to Go to a Farmers Market?
The best time to visit your local farmers’ market is right when it opens.
We recommend arriving early, as you’ll have the first pick of the freshest produce. Those perfect strawberries and seasonal vegetables sell out quickly, so arriving early means you won’t miss out on what you’re after. Plus, you’ll avoid the weekend crowds that build up later in the morning.
What Is the Biggest Farmers’ Market in Canada?
St. Lawrence Market in Toronto stands out as Canada’s biggest farmers’ market. This historic venue attracts millions of visitors annually and features hundreds of vendors across several buildings. While we appreciate our local Surrey markets, Toronto’s market clearly takes the lead in scale and visitor numbers.
