Most Farmers' Markets are held monthly and at weekends and are run by farmers and producers themselves or by town centre management companies, local councils, community councils or private companies. All have their main focus on top quality foods and products, grown and produced locally.
Many markets widen their appeal by including garden plants and handcrafts and by inviting local producers to attend their markets, giving the public real choice and a unique opportunity to see the varsity of food produced on a small scale locally.
All Farmers' Markets and individual stall holders are expected to meet the same standards of health, safety and labeling as any other retail outlet.
