Buy local is the main driver for the Prince George Pop-up Market.
Every second-weekend local businesses get together behind the Farmers Market to try and promote their products.
Lori McGougan from Riplee’s Pet Food knows how important it is to support businesses in your community.
“Local is very important to me and I love supporting local. This is one of the great ways of getting to know all the other local vendors around and all the people who shop downtown.”
Vendor Candice Crosby says this can open up the doors for new connections.
“It’s good for being able to network and meet other entrepreneurs. There are definitely lots of moms out there who are kind of in the same boat where they want to have some extra income for their families.”
The next market is August 11 on 2nd Avenue and Quebec street.
