We support small local businesses.
| For many of our producers, we act as a reliable shop front. Our stall-holders are able to sell to the Hampshire community, engage with existing customers, as well as attracting new ones. |
Enjoy fresh, diverse foods.
| Great local produce runs through our veins! We offer the opportunity to eat a diverse range of fresh food. |
From unique rustic street food, to wild game, and hearty pork pies… there is always something new to tickle your taste-buds!
We’re a community hub.
| There’s more to us than meets the eye. |
To become a member and bring goods to market, producers must source at least 20% of their ingredients from Hampshire or within a 20-mile radius. Any produce that is grown, reared or raised must spend at least 50 per cent of its time with the producer.
Many of our stall-holders buy produce from each other, which helps keep trade in Hampshire.
Supporting the local environment.
| With local produce, there is a shorter journey from field to plate, meaning when you buy at our markets, you help reduce the carbon footprint. |
Our farmers work to preserve the local ecosystem. Hedges, ponds and meadows; all natural habitats for a variety of Hampshire wildlife.
A respected community organisation.Â
| We fulfill the important role of introducing the county’s best producers each and every weekend. |
| In 2002 we became an independent not for profit organisation, and the same year became accredited by the Farmers Retail & Markets Association. |
| We hope these benefits inspire you to continue to visit our markets. Thank you to everyone who does, for you allow us to run such diverse and award-winning farmers’ markets across Hampshire. |
