Coombs Market, Coombs, B.C.

Just off of the Alberni Hwy 4, a short drive from Parksville is the "Old Country Market at Coombs." For several years the market has been known for the family of goats up on top of the grass sod roof top.  It is a place that I have loved to visit whenever we are on the main island.  What started as a roadside stand selling fresh local produce has now expanded to offer delicious local foods, imports, souvenirs and crafts.

This is where I have come to love the Red Japanese Maple tree so much.  They have several for sale and growing in pots in the yard.
