🧭 Why Visit Farmers' Markets in August?

August is one of the richest months for fresh British produce: courgettes, tomatoes, beans, early apples, berries, soft cheeses and garden herbs. But beyond the flavours, it’s about connection — to the land, to growers, and to your own community.

Markets like these also support:

  • Independent growers and family-run farms

  • Heritage varieties and seasonal crops

  • Low-carbon, low-packaging food systems

  • Local economies in rural and semi-rural areas

🛍 Tips for a Better Market Experience

  • Bring cash — some stalls may not take card payments.

  • Come early — best produce sells fast, especially fresh eggs, bread and soft fruit.

  • Talk to farmers — they’re often happy to share recipes or advice.

  • Bring your own bags or basket.

  • Make it a day out — most market towns have cafés, walking trails and historic centres nearby.
