Advantages Of Disabled Veteran Farm Loans

By Peter Campbell


Fresh food products are the way to go. Healthy is what most people are now interested in when purchasing their foods. The Sunday farmers market Edmonton have found both a way to provide fresh foods to their clients as well as acting as entertainment places to hangout and relax on Sundays. Disabled veteran farm loans have also been of great help in this sector. Below is a mention of some of the well-known farmers markets in Edmonton and also the few challenges they face and reasons why they are the right places to visit on Sundays.

These markets do not only provide food products but also act as entertainment spots providing different activities for customers to enjoy. Most of them also have a patio useful for meet and greets and chilling spots. For a while these markets in Alberta have been a norm but Sunday farmers markets have been popping up more recently.

The Century Park Market on twenty Third Avenue and 111 streets. The Mothers Market opening from 10 in morning to 5 in the afternoon and is located on 10251, street 109 and the South Common Farmers market which opens from 10 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon. Most of these markets also open on other days apart from Sunday.

There are two types of farmers market in Alberta namely the approved ones and public ones that have not been approved. They are approved by the Alberta Agriculture and Forestry and have some rules they operate by. The private markets do not have to operate by these guidelines.

The public ones are privately owned and it is required that each of the vendor of them should have their own permit. Operating under this organisation means that they are required to abide by some stipulated mandates which include that 80 percent of their vendors be selling local produce which is not a requirement for public ones.

The approved markets have to abide by the rule that eighty percent of their vendors are local. The public markets do not have to abide by this rule. Also, in the approved markets, all the vendors can share one permit, for public ones each vendor has to have their own permit and are required to meet health standards.

These markets promote local products and this is good for the farmers. The only disadvantage is that having consistent fresh supply from these farmers alone can be hard and some vendors get products from outside and sometimes it might be better than those produced locally and hence honest working farmers can earn less compared to those that outsource.

Another major problem associated with these institutions is that some since the demand for fresh supply from farmers is high, some vendors may opt to cheat and get their supply from outside the region in order to maintain constant supply, these markets do have a purpose to support local goods and outsourcing for products is going against this very rule. Despite these few challenges, most of these markets have achieved their goal to supply fresh products as well as promote local farmers.
