About Us
The High River Farmers' Market has been a summer staple for more than 35 years. Inclusion Foothills took over operations of the Market in 2015, the same year the Market moved to the downtown location on 4 Avenue SW. Seeing rapid growth since then, the Farmers' Market has become a hit with residents and visitors alike.
Inclusion Foothills’ mission is to provide advocacy and support for individuals with pan disability and their families/guardians so they may: enjoy all rights, responsibilities, and benefits of citizenship, be valued, and included as equal/valued citizens and be free of discrimination. Vendor fees from the Market go towards Inclusion Foothills employment opportunities created for our participants.
Meet Sunny Girl
