Holiday Shopping at the Cannery Store
Steveston has a wide variety of shops and businesses to find all of your holiday needs. From a garden shop, to toy store, bikes, sweets, stationery, vintage, and so much more; spend a day exploring the village and find one-of-a-kind gifts for all of your friends and family.
The Cannery’s gift shop is also a great place for holiday shopping. Find locally-themed items like giftware and clothing with First Nations designs, books on local history, and toys and home decor with maritime designs. There’s also canned salmon, tuna, and sturgeon (sustainably farmed on the Sunshine Coast!), all canned in BC’s last commercial cannery, St. Jeans in Nanaimo. Check out the Vancouver Christmas Guide’s holiday gift guide for more on the Cannery Store.
