What is a farmers' market?
Farmers' markets can vary and it may be better to call our market a 'producers market' or even a 'community market', as not all traders have to be farmers! The key thing is that the person selling you the goods has produced them, so you are buying direct from the cook, grower, or farmer. This means that as a customer you can ask all about how the item was produced and what it contains. You may even be able to benefit from discounts or seasonal offers. Only small producers who live locally attend our market. We try to support countryside tradition, and usually include some craft stalls.
