The Saskatoon Farmers’ Market Co-operative Ltd. expects to find a new home in the next couple of months.

Where the food producers’ co-operative will end up remains unclear, according to farmers’ market president Adi Ramachandran, but remaining in its current location in a city-owned building seems unlikely.

“We are forging ahead with plans to relocate,” Ramachandran said in an interview on Wednesday.

The co-operative of about 100 vendors has formed a subcommittee to search for a new location; it has visited about 10 buildings so far, Ramachandran said. He would not reveal the locations of the buildings.

The City of Saskatoon and the co-operative have reached an impasse over the city’s efforts to animate the River Landing site where the market is located six days a week, according to Ramachandran. The market currently operates during the day on Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday.

Ramachandran said the co-operative has asked for feedback from the city on its last proposal, but has yet to hear back.
