Islington Farmers' Market
Sunday is my au marché day, up and
about Islington Farmers' Market, London's first ever and most established, which
takes place on Chapel Market between Baron Street and Penton Street every
Sunday between 10.00 and 14.00.
The market is Certified by the Farmers’ Retail
and Markets Association which guarantees we are buying food from the farm
and not a wholesaler, all products are grown and produced within 100 miles of
London.
I prefer to shop seasonal and local and here
I can find a selection of seasonal flowers, a great choice of fruit &
vegetables (some organic) and a selection of free range and organic meat and
poultry; it is a bit windy today but it is worth the outing....
You have to try this experience at least once and
you won't go back: it is colourful, nostalgic, mostly cheaper than
supermarkets and you are supporting hard-working local farmers and food
producers.
I'm sure you can find a farmers' market near you
if you live far from London, Islington;
go on, you know you want to....
