About this service
The Power of Produce (PoP) Program provides a fun opportunity for children to engage in the local food system through conversations directly with farmers, educational games, and exposure to new fruits and vegetables.
The PoP Club is a free new program for Fernie youth, ages 4-16, that offers participants a $3 wooden token to purchase produce at the Mountain Market. The program aims to increase the amount of fresh, locally grown fruit or vegetables consumed by Elk Valley youth and to build connections with our local farmers. Based on a program established by the Oregon City Farmers Market, the Power of Produce initiative seeks to develop the next generation of healthy eaters.
To participate, you must register to be part of the club. Once registered, PoP Club members can receive their token at the Wildsight Elk Valley booth at the Fernie Mountain Market.
