Some of the wide variety of produce at Crediton Farmers MarketHeld on the first Saturday of every month between 10am and 1pm, Crediton Farmers Market takes place on the new market square in Crediton which was designed and built with the market in mind. With a wide range of organic and conventional produce available; including meat, fish, seasonal fruit and vegetables, dairy products, cakes, plants, apple juice, cider, preserves, pottery, cards and herbs, and with virtually all stallholders living less than 10 miles from the market, Crediton has one of the most local farmers markets in the county. Although we do have to occasionally look further afield in order to keep the market as fresh and interesting as possible produce does not travel more than around 30 miles at the most. The result is one of the finest farmers markets in the county, a fact recognised by the readers of Devon Life magazine who voted us the Best Farmers Market of the Year for the third time.

We aim to make your visit a sociable and community occasion as well as a vibrant shopping experience. Come down to the market to shop and also enjoy a cup of Fairtrade tea or coffee, soup from local ingredients, a locally-produced, freshly-cooked hotdog or bacon butty, or some locally-grown fruit while meeting your friends. Chairs provided!

We try to provide entertainment whenever possible from local individuals and organisations - local school choirs are a regular feature - as well as supporting local community initiatives, such as the drive for Crediton to achieve Fair Trade Town status. This award was conferred on the town at the market in recognition of our support. We also support the Plastic Bag Free Crediton scheme and hosted the launch party.

If you are a producer and would like to join the market, then please look on the Market Guidelines page
where you will find the criteria and application form.
