Good day community members,
A new exciting Farmers Market is opening its doors to you in the French Quarter this June. To be held at La Cité Francophone at 8627 91st, this new market aims to make farm fresh produce, confections, and handmade crafts available to you year round and in a low stress and easygoing environment. We aim to launch your new market in mid-June but are in need of some input on your part.
Please follow the following link to an online, 3 question surveys. It will only take one or two minutes to fill out but is very important to guide the success of this new communal installation.

Ritchie is a vibrant, historical community in the heart of Edmonton. With our proximity to the University of Alberta, our wealth of independent businesses, a Francophone and a Spanish bilingual elementary school and easy transit access to major hubs, we are a community of diverse interests and people. We have several playgrounds, a new spray park, an ice rink, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts. We have Mill Creek Ravine, a beautiful place with walking and cycling trails along with off leash areas- so much to do for the whole family! |
