What
is a Farmers' Market?
A farmers' market is where farmers,
growers from locals areas sell their own produce, direct to
the public. All products sold should have been grown, reared,
caught, brewed, pickled, baked, smoked or processed by the stall
holder.
By this the buying public can speak direct to the growers of
the product and ask questions regarding the produce knowing
the answers they get are genuine. This gives you confidence
when buying!!!!
