Vision & MissionOur mission is to "Connect and Celebrate our Community". We are a not for profit organization that hosts the Cloverdale Market Days, a colorful open-air market that brings vibrancy to Cloverdale and its wonderful array of locally produced arts, crafts, entertainment and local community groups. We felt developing a community market can be a winning situation for the community businesses. A well placed market can increase foot traffic to nearby businesses and keep money that would have been spent outside of the community in the community.

How Do We Fulfill Our Vision And Mission?Cloverdale Market Days has been growing every year. We have 5 markets planned for this summer, one of the largest open-air markets showcasing unique items from local BC Artisans, and treasures from downtown merchants with over 100 vendors. Mix it up with street entertainment, food trucks, and you've got a destination outing for the whole family. We also host an annual Ladies Night Shopping event to launch the Christmas shopping season with Cloverdale retail shops. Our trademark Cloverdale t-shirts, promoting community pride, are a great fundraiser with over 800 sold to date. Some of our shirts have made it around the world.
Future Plans In CloverdaleWe will continue to grow the markets and promote events to make Cloverdale a destination like Ft Langley and Steveston.
