Mrkt Haul is a new way to support local businesses in Vancouver. It is a one-stop online platform that different local businesses can showcase their products, and customers can place orders online for pickup. Mrkt Haul features different businesses each month, and there would be a week for customers to shop. Then they can schedule for pick up in the following week.

Orders can be placed online, and it is available through pickup, drive-thru, or contactless delivery for people in Vancouver and North Shore.

Last year, Vancouver had its first ever Filipino market, Magkasama. Magkasama means ‘together’ in Tagalog, and it is a free festival that spotlights Filipino culture, including food, handcrafted goods, and music. And it was one of the best markets I’ve attended.

Many of you also message me and asked if the Vancouver Wine Festival is worth every buck. So here I am to answer all your questions.
