Welcome to the Fraser Valley Farm Direct Marketing Association website. Using this website
will allow you to find local producers of more than 100 different farm products and services who market what they produce
either directly from their farms or at area farmers’ markets. Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the
website, so that you can make your buy local experience more energy efficient by visiting several different producers and
advertisers all in the same trip.
You might be surprised to learn that the Fraser Valley generates over a billion dollars of
revenue annually and farm direct marketers make an important contribution to that revenue. This is more than half of the
revenue generated by all of British Columbia agriculture, even though the Fraser Valley comprises less than 3% of B.C.’s
agricultural land! That’s an example of how precious the combination of rich soil, mild climate and adjacency to a major
population centre really is. And unlike the situation with many large corporate businesses, money generated by local agriculture
tends to stay in the local area and contribute directly to the local economy.
The producers whose operations are described on this website are all members of the Fraser Valley
Farm Direct Marketing Association, an organization with 68 members this year. A special thank you is extended to all our many
customers and advertisers who support our farmers. Those farmers work very hard to make local BC farm fresh products available
to consumers in this scenic part of the world.
Jim Rahe, President
FVFDMA
