The Difference with a Farmers Market and a carnival is at a real farmer market 
everything you see is make, bake or grow from the real farmers and foods artisans, made from scratch 
no stores owner except for bread bake, no imported goods or repackaging. 

A carnival is more a place where anything goes, imported goods, stores owner promoting there business, repackages goods or copycat of other business and usually farmers market reject 
The Ladner market is a good example of a Carnival, nothing wrong with it but the use of Farmer market for this event is pretty loose
