The 2009 season of the Moss Street Market will start with two half markets (10-noon) on April 18th and 25th. Our full season begins May 2nd and continues every Saturday from 10am to 2pm, rain or shine, until October. The 2 half market dates in April will also serve as the first Craft Review dates. We are located on the Sir James Douglas School grounds at the corner of Moss and Fairfield in Victoria, BC.
There will be Food Reviews taking place on April 25th, 2009.
Please remember that there is no ATM on the school grounds and some vendors may not have the ability to process Credit Cards, therefore cash is the preferred method of payment. Also, due to Vancouver Island Health Authority regulations there are no dogs allowed in the inner portion of the market. Doggie water bowls have been provided near the entrances. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank-you for your interest in the Moss Street Market. See you soon!
In order to sell your wares at the Moss St. Market, you must be reviewed.
The pre-market reviews for crafts will be taking place on Saturday, April 18, 10-noon at the market site; and Saturday April 25, 10-noon at the market site. Pre-market Food & Service reviews will be done by appointment. Please contact farm@mossstreetmarket.com, food@mossstreetmarket.com, services@mossstreetmarket.com appropriately.
Please bring a few samples of your work, and check the policy manual on this site and the appropriate page for your product for more information about vendor requirements. Please note that you will not be able to sell on the day you come to be reviewed. Review status expires after one month--if you do not make it to the market as a vendor within one month from the time of your review, you will need to be re-reviewed.Other Important Information

The Moss Street Market turned 15 in 2006. We had a wonderful celebration of our fifteen years of service on September 16th. Here are some images and articles from the day.
In 2006 we also said a sad farewell to our resident beekeeper, John A. MacDonald. John died November 7, 2006. His trademark black hat and welcoming smile, his HUGE knowledge and obvious love for bees, will be greatly missed at the market.
Check out the recipes supplied by some of our Moss Streeters.
