Welcome to North Park, Councillor Potts. We are looking forward to working with you to increase community benefit and centre equity in North Park.

North Park's Next Monthly Food Market: February 21: 10:30am-1:30pm at RAP!

Each month, the NPNA hosts a monthly food market at Royal Athletic Park. This free, family friendly (and pet friendly!) market features rotating prepared food vendors. 

This market is free to attend both for vendors and for guests, and is one of the ways the NPNA is working towards increasing food security in North Park. It's also a great way to animate Royal Athletic Park! Funding for the monthly food market began with a grant from the Canada Red Cross, and is continuing with a City of Victoria Strategic Plan Grant (2.0). 

We are currently seeking new applications for food vendors. Fill out the application form here. 

The next monthly food market is Sunday, February 21 from 10:30am-1:30pm. For the most up to date list of vendors, see the Facebook event! The market space is wheelchair, stroller, and walker accessible, and dogs on leashes are allowed into the market space!

• Songhees Events & Catering - fresh bannock and granola! @songheesevents
• Food on the Run Canada - Fresh corn tortillas and handmade tamales
• Justo's Craft Dips - Delicious vegan hummus & salsas @justos.ca
• Salsa Gonzales- Hot sauces, preserves, and more! @salsagonzalesyyj
• Delectable Deliverables- Scrumptious breads, desserts, snacks, and more! @DelectableDeliverablesvic
