Agriculture and Breeding Businesses
The City of Edmonton’s Business Licence Bylaw outlines the following categories and regulations for businesses involved in agriculture and breeding:
Farmer's Market
This category is described as "a market as approved by the Alberta Approved Farmers’ Market Program administered by Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development."
Vendors operating within a licensed farmer's market do not need a licence of their own.
There are no special business licence regulations - other than the need for a licence - however there are special application requirements for this category. Edmonton Fire Rescue is asked for a recommendation on applications for this category of business.
