Your September 24–27 guide to what's happening around Leduc—with a first look at what's coming next week.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2026

Good morning, Leduc! 👋

There's plenty happening as we head into the final weekend of September.

The outdoor Farmers Market wraps up its season, a free clothing giveaway is bringing neighbours together, there's a quieter Friday-night option near Wizard Lake, and we've got a couple of tasty reasons to visit downtown Leduc next week.

Here's your guide. 👇

🥕 Thursday: Leduc Farmers Market — 10:00 AM–1:30 PM

🌙 Friday: Full Moon Forest Bathing Walk — 8:00–9:30 PM

🧺 Saturday: Final Leduc Farmers Market of the 2026 outdoor season — 10:00 AM–1:30 PM

👕 Saturday: Leduc Alliance Church Free Clothing Giveaway & Community Day — 10:00 AM–3:00 PM

👋 Saturday: Millet Legion Open House — 10:00 AM–4:00 PM

🧁 Coming Next Week: Sampling Day at Intolerance on Thursday, October 1 + Risen Gluten Free Bakery pop-up on Friday, October 2

📍 Leduc Recreation Centre
4330 Black Gold Drive

September 26 is the last scheduled day of the Leduc Farmers Market's 2026 outdoor season.

It's a good chance to make one more trip before the season wraps up.

🍅 Pick up something fresh.

🥐 Find some local baking.

🎁 Discover something handmade.

👋 Revisit a favourite vendor.

❤️ Or simply thank someone whose table made your summer market trips worth taking.

If Saturday is full, the market is also scheduled for Thursday, September 24 from 10:00 AM–1:30 PM.

Local businesses remember the people who come back.

A conversation, a purchase and a recommendation to a neighbour can carry well beyond market season.
