Elmvale BIA
Established in 2012. The association is governed by a volunteer Board of Management chosen from the general membership and approved by Town Council. Council also appoints a Council representative to serve on the board and act as a liaison between the BIA and Town Council. The term of office on the Board of Management coincides with the terms of Council.
Our Goals
Our membership is passionate about their downtown business community. The BIA works in partnership with the membership, Town Council and other stakeholders to ensure downtown Elmvale continues to be a dynamic area of great shopping, dining, professional services, cultural opportunities and architectural interest.
The Elmvale Farmers’ Market Returns for 2026 – A Fresh Season of Community, Commerce, and Connection
The Elmvale Business Improvement Area (BIA) is excited to announce the return of the Elmvale Farmers’ Market for the 2026 season, a celebration of local food, creativity, and community spirit that continues to grow each year.
A summer tradition for over 15 years, the Market will run Thursday evenings from June 11 to August 27, offering fresh local produce, handcrafted goods, music, and a welcoming space for friends and families to gather. This year’s time — 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM — gives residents and visitors alike the perfect opportunity to stop in after work, enjoy the atmosphere, and support local makers and growers.
“The Farmers’ Market is one of those special places where you can really feel what makes Elmvale unique,” says Councillor Matt Garwood, BIA Board Member. “You see neighbours catching up, kids eating fresh berries, and visitors discovering our small-town charm. The energy here helps fuel downtown Elmvale, it draws people in, supports our small businesses, and reminds us how strong our community truly is.”
