Food map for Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

What is on this map?

The map above shows farms, farmers’ markets, producers, bakeries, cafés, community kitchens and food nonprofits in Fredericton. It is drawn from a radius of roughly 100 km around Fredericton, so it reaches well past the city line into the surrounding countryside, and restaurants and grocers are deliberately left off it. It grew out of our Fredericton guide, and it is one of the city maps collected on the Food Maps hub.

Because the embed is a live query against Food Web's Asset Map, nothing here is a typed count quietly going stale. If a business or a program you know is missing, wrong or closed, you can add or correct it from the map itself — corrections are what keep it worth using.

What do we actually know about markets in Fredericton?

The Boyce Farmers Market, founded in 1951, opens every Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and draws more than 200 suppliers — a scale that explains why so many of the farms on this map sit outside the city itself.

There is no New Brunswick farmers' market association count we could verify, and no active national association publishes a Canada-wide one, so treat any round number you see elsewhere with suspicion.

For scale, the last census of agriculture found that in 2020 — a pandemic year, so read it as a floor — 25,917 Canadian farms, 13.6% of them, reported selling directly to consumers, and 4,137 named farmers' markets as a channel. On-farm stores, stands, U-pick and farm-gate sales were more common, reported by 15,647 farms.

Who regulates a food business in Fredericton?

Canada runs a shared food safety system: the province manages food safety in its own region, including inspections of local food production and retail, while the Canadian Food Inspection Agency enforces the national standards Health Canada sets. The federal line is clear — you do not need a Safe Food for Canadians licence to trade food inside your own province; it applies to importing, exporting or sending food to another province. New Brunswick's own licensing requirements could not be verified from a primary government source for this page, so confirm those directly with the provincial regulator instead of trusting any summary, this one included. More in the licensing and permits guides.

Where can you rent kitchen space in Fredericton?

Honestly: not through Food Web yet. The bookable listings in Food Web's kitchen directory are concentrated in Nova Scotia, and there are none in Fredericton today — this page is not going to pretend otherwise. If you run a licensed kitchen in Fredericton that sits idle part of the week, listing it is free, and it will appear on this page as soon as it goes live.
