Celebrating Community at Island Roots Farmers’ Market: Join Deborah Henderson on September 24th

If you’re passionate about supporting local, connecting with your community, and discovering fresh, homegrown products, the Island Roots Farmers’ Market is the place to be! On Tuesday, September 24th, the market welcomes not only a vibrant mix of farmers, artisans, and food producers—but also special guest and local author, Deborah Henderson.

Island Roots has been a hub for Nanaimo’s local food movement since 2012, providing farmers and makers a space to share their passion and products. The market is all about healthy living, community connection, and championing local talent. From fresh produce and baked goods to handcrafted items, there’s something for everyone.

Deborah Henderson will be on hand to chat about her books and writing journey. It’s a wonderful opportunity to meet her, get inspired, and maybe even pick up a signed copy of her latest work.

Whether you’re a regular at Island Roots or planning your first visit, September 24th is the perfect day to come out, support local, and enjoy the lively atmosphere. See you at the market!
