The Dickens Fair 2022 is Only 3 Weeks Away

The Dickens Fair 2022 is Only 3 Weeks Away
 

Can You Believe The Dickens Fair Market is Only 3 Weeks Away?!

The count-down is on with only 3 weeks until Victoria’s oldest and favourite Christmas Fair. Do you have your shopping list ready? Here are a few more fabulous Vendors you’ll want to add to it!


From Candles to Pet Accessories to Whiskey, We’ve Got it All!


Ginkgo Craft Studio

Ginkgo Craft Studio showcases simplicity and appreciates the efforts put in through the supply chain, starting from the plants & bees all the way to the candle being lit. Bringing joy to the consumers while producing minimal waste is achieved by locally sourcing my beeswax, shipping materials and reusing/repurposing packaging while making the candles, labels and business cards at home.

These candles have a honeycomb texture, are nonallergenic, drip resistant, don’t smoke, have a natural honey scent and are made with 100% Pure Canadian beeswax.

Canadian Beaverworks

I’m a maker of unique, one of a kind wooden objects. Boxes are made of handsome, sometimes tropical, woods and can be used for many purposes. Puzzles are similarly finely made, again using special woods, and are attractively packaged.

Everything is handcrafted by me in my tiny workspace less than 1 km from The Dicken’s Fair. I try to repurpose wood from old objects as much as possible.

La Pasta Triestina

Our artisan pastas are made exclusively by hand here in Victoria by chef Massimo Buggini – a borne and bred Italian pastaio from Trieste, Northern Italy. We use traditional Italian methods and unique seasonal ingredients from local farms & markets, like the certified organic durum wheat milled fresh on Vancouver Island. Our pastas are slow dried to produce a beautifully delicate, highly-nutritious product with exceptional flavour.

Have you tried our traditional sweet dolci (amaretti morbidi, panforte di siena, etc.) yet? These sweet treats are a true labour of love, bringing you Italian amore!

Otter & Emma

Otter & Emma is a mother-daughter sewing duo that makes everything in their collection of dog and cat gear by hand. They sell collars, leashes, harnesses and more, all made from durable, fun fabrics. 

The colourful and fun fabrics and sturdy hardware is sourced locally, as well.

Devine Distillery

DEVINE Distillery produces an award-winning lineup of certified craft whisky, gin, ‘rum’ and brandy in the Saanich Peninsula using sustainably grown or sourced BC ingredients to showcase our local terroir in each sip. 

Good honest spirits made by hand and elegantly crafted from the heart.
