Last month, the first ever Edmonton Hawkers Market was hosted in the Mercer Warehouse. Chris Jerome, the founder of Hawkers Market in Vancouver, decided to bring the concept to Edmonton to celebrate local food vendors and provide and opportunity for local businesses to grow. It was a great evening of food, dancing, and fun. I only wish that there were more vendors on site selling product to take home, rather than food to eat then and there. Maybe changes will be seen in the next market? It's already scheduled for February 22, 2014 - get your tickets now if you're interested!
