The aims of Crediton Farmers Market are to promote local and
seasonal produce and enterprise, to increase farm incomes to a level which
better reflects the value of the product, and to provide a focal point for the
local community. |

Held on the first Saturday of every month between
10am and 1pm, Crediton
Farmers Market takes place in the market square in Crediton which was designed
and built with the market in mind. We have a wide range of produce available,
both organic and traditional, free-range and locally made; including meat, poultry, fish, seasonal fruit and
vegetables, cheese and dairy products, cakes, bread, eggs, plants, apple juice,
cider, preserves, pottery,
teas, coffees, olives, cards and hand-made soap. Most of our stallholders live
less than 10 miles from the market which
means that Crediton has
one of the most local farmers markets in the country.
Occasionally we may look further afield in order to keep the market
as fresh and interesting as possible. But the produce does not travel
more than 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, breakfast, soup from local ingredients, a locally-produced, freshly-cooked bacon butty or hot-dog, while meeting your friends. Chairs and tables provided! We try to provide entertainment using local
individuals and organisations, such as neighbourhood school choirs. We
also support local community initiatives like the drive for
Crediton to achieve Fair Trade Town status. This award was conferred on
the town in 2007 at the market in recognition of our support. We also If you are a producer and would like to join the market,
