Another treasure I'd curiously passed by for many years before venturing in. North Arm Farm is a…read morelocal produce paradise with a wide range of all organically grown fruits and veggies. There's even a u-pick option! Kids can feed the sheep, chickens, pigs and ducks while parents peruse the organic local honeys, pies, jams and of course, fruit, vegetables and fresh cut flowers. Even if you just want a glimpse of the farm, you'll be sure to leave laden with at least a pie or two. They even serve farm lunches and can do corporate catering! Be sure to bring your camera and a pair of mud-friendly shoes.

They have lots of vendors selling local goods, jewelry, arts & crafts, produce, and some food vendors - but not a lot. The only ones I recall were scallion pancakes, bibimbap, lemonade, shave ice, and pizza. We ended up getting some scallion pancakes and bibimbap. We also bought some syrups from the shaved ice stand. Most of the prices seem very fair, considering how expensive Whistler is in general. There's nothing amazing about this farmer's market but it's nice if you want to check out some local items, and if you have nothing to do.

Whistler is home to my absolute favourite farmer's market!…read more For starters, their produce is always in season. Depending on the time of year, you may only see one or two produce vendors at the market, but on my most recent trip I noticed three; two fruit stands and one veggie mini market. One of the fruit stands was carrying fresh, local goji berries, which was a fun surprise. I'd never seen or tasted a fresh goji berry before and the fact that they were local was just an added bonus. The variety of food/artisanal goods is phenomenal. Whenever I come, I always binge on, well, basically everything. This time, I got a snow cone from Frost Bites, a horchata from Aguas Frescas, and a plateful of paella from Entucasa. When was the last time you had a snow cone? If your answer is "too long ago" then you will not be disappointed if/when you buy one from Frost Bites. They use their own syrups to flavour them, leading to some unique--yet downright delicious--flavour combinations. I got lychee yuzu and peach with lemon verbena. I seriously recommend that you try Aguas Frescas; they've recently expanded to selling their products at markets outside of Whistler, and for good reason; people--myself especially--can't get enough of them! I love all their flavours, I love that all the ingredients they use are simple (no preservatives here!), and I love how friendly they are. The paella from Entucasa was good; there was a nice portion size on the plate but after paying $15, I wanted more than just one spot prawn. Also, I missed the chorizo, which was not included in this dish. Whether you've never been to a farmer's market before or love them like I do, the Whistler Farmer's Market is a nice place to start.

Love their ice cream - def recommend getting their kiddie double scoop. It's already a generous size and you get to try 2 flavours. They only allow ONE taste test though. We tried: -Kettle corn 5/5 (tastes like a buttery pecan popcorn, loved the crunchy texture too) -Espresso flake 5/5 (lovely thin crunchy mocha chips and well balanced) - banana fudge (4.5/5) -caramelized pineapple with sea salt (4/5, interesting almost grainy texture and very refreshing creamy)

There was a FIFA watch party (Canada vs Qatar) so the energy was up and people were into it. I grabbed some food, walked around, and just took everything in. The highlight though was randomly coming across a guy performing live music. He was playing instruments beautifully. Definitely one of those moments where you don't rush it, you just stop and listen. Overall, it's a nice place to wander, eat, and catch the vibe of the city all in one spot.
