Lethbridge Farmers’ Markets
Event Description
Lethbridge & District Exhibition hosts not one but two Farmers’ Markets throughout the year!
The Saturday Lethbridge Farmers’ Market presented by UFA runs from June to October at the Agri-food Hub & Trade Centre. Since 1962, The Lethbridge and District Exhibition has put on the market, which is Lethbridge’s only Alberta-approved Farmers’ Markets.
