🌽🥕 Pembroke Farmers’ Market – Where Community Comes First 🥕🌽

The Pembroke Farmers’ Market is more than a place to shop—it’s a true community hub where local farmers, makers, artisans, and small businesses come together to share what they do best.

From fresh local produce and baked goods to handmade crafts and unique creations, every vendor is a local entrepreneur building something meaningful right here in the Ottawa Valley.

When you shop at the market, you’re not just buying local—you’re supporting families, small businesses, and a stronger community economy. 💛

A place to connect, discover, and celebrate the talent and creativity of the region.

On June 2, more than 70 community leaders from across Renfrew County gathered for the 3rd Annual Community Leadership Exchange, a collaborative forum focused on strengthening community well-being through partnership, innovation, and collective action.

Collaboratively organized by Upper Ottawa Valley Chamber of Commerce, Algonquin College Waterfront Campus, Invest Renfrew County, and Renfrew County Community Futures Development Corporation, the event brought together representatives from healthcare, housing, education, transportation, economic development, social services, and municipal government to identify shared priorities and explore opportunities for collaboration.

Discussions across nine facilitated tables pointed to four closely connected priorities:
→ Affordability → Healthcare access → Transportation → Housing

These priorities will guide future collaborative efforts and inform strategies that support the long-term well-being of Renfrew County communities.

A summary of the discussion, emerging priorities, and identified actions is now available on the UOVCC website.
