- Beachblonde556SeaTac, WA75 contributionsThis market has a little bit of everything. From fresh-grown produce, to meats, to crafts, and all kinds of niche stuff. You can even sample wines and spirits from one of the many wineries and distilleries around Duncan. It's every Saturday, and I probably spent way more than needed here. I bought a lot of very fresh and reasonably priced produce, sampled some of the 'spirits' from the distilleries, and had a blast. This is a good jumping-off point to find all the fun craft and food places around Duncan.Written September 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- maggie c22 contributionsI have been buying meat at this butcher for over 30 years. Great quality, great prices, great service. You must try one of their many types of in house made sausages! But in reality, you will enjoy anything you decide on. Can't be beat.Written October 20, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heather R100 Mile House, Canada59 contributionsThe best selection of everything locally grown or made. From various meats, sausages, vegetables, various bread vendors, eggs, Pie, oh the Pie Lady pie is worth a true rave on its own! And my newest happy place vendor, The Farm Family Bakery. I remember them from Black Creek selling baked goods from their home.....beautiful soft delicious buns, and so much more!Written October 24, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- dens1412 contributionsLots of fresh local produce. Decently priced, comparable to other local places.

- CB14O167 contributionsI tried smoked salmon at four different places on Vancouver Island. All were great but the basic alder smoked salmon from Mad Dog Crabs stood out as the clear #1.Written September 6, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Linda CSan Francisco, CA16 contributionsLove Eat Fresh, buy all our meat and veggies - excellent.
Stay away from the bakery counter's chicken pot pies and beef pies. They were once excellent, however the recipe has changed to all primarily potatoes and a few (2) pieces of meat. Pastry still good.Written September 15, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DiscoverAndEnjoyComox, Canada404 contributionsA quaint, small town market with lovely vendors. We visited in October so there weren't a large number of people selling butt those that were there were personable, ready to share their stories and variety between stalls, I even managed some Christmas shopping! We'll definitely return again if we are there on a Saturday.Written October 17, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Phil C.Central Saanich, Canada207 contributionsWhen here recently to collect our pies from Olivia, the Pie Lady. I had never been in the building before and I was surprised by the excellent quality pottery everywhere, a small cafe and local produce. We're definitely going back to check out some pottery and maybe a snack. We will also come back in the growing season to see what local produce is available.Written January 3, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
