Saanich considers pop-up shops on Galloping Goose Trail

The idea for food vendors along the trails first surfaced in Saanich about seven years ago, but recent moves from the City of Victoria and the effects of the pandemic have district council considering the idea more seriously.

"So it's kind of encouraging to hear that other places are kind of watching what's happening and seeing if they want to do it too," she said. If the idea moves forward, council will look at approving specific locations where food vendors and farm stands can set up, with specific zoning assigned to each site.

Amazing to see what representatives think up just before elections start. Please don't do it. Leave natural beauty as it is, unless you're adding more toilets & water stations. People aren't biking those trails to buy trinkets, and there are already enough nearby cafes.
