Thames Valley Farmers markets

I used to go to the one in Beaconfield - 4th Saturday of the month. Good selection of produce - meat, veg, bread, trout, jams and cakes, plants. Quite expensive but not surprising given the local area  |

No website, but there's a nice little farmer's market near me - Crew's Hill, the road with masses of garden centres, near Enfield (North London). Thirs Thursday of every month at Woldens Nursery (next one this coming Thursday) in the car park.
Only small, but fairly comprehensive selection of stalls - meat, cheese, cakes, fish, game, veg, pies, eggs etc.
Starts at 9am and I'd suggest getting there early, as it's on Pension day and the local Saga Louts get their money and hop on the train up to Crews Hill to do the market then go round the garden centres. One day they cleared the fish stall in 5 minutes flat.  |

I've only just seen this thread, if you're in Surrey/Sussex this farm shop is fab, it's in Itchingfield just outside Horsham, West Sussex.

Ooo, that's where I grew up, Enfield! They didn't have a farmers market when I lived down there. Do you go to Enfield's town market on Saturdays?
Fife Farmers Market:
http://www.fifefarmersmarket.co.uk/
St Andrews - 1st Saturday of the month
Dunfermline - 2nd Saturday
Cupar - 3rd Saturday
Kirkcaldy - last Saturday
My favourite stalls are:
Langraw for their Highland beef (you see them in the fields opposite the caravan park just outside of St Andrews  )
Puddledub for their water buffalo, pork and bacon
Fletchers for their venison
Hilton for their wild boar
and Iain Spink for his Arbroath Smokies.
Excellent markets all, and I never miss them.
Cupar this Saturday. |
