South Devon's Farmers' Markets

At South Devon Farmers’ Markets you can taste the delights of local foods:

Fresh Vegetables

With its rich and fertile rural land, the South Devon region produces plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, fine free-range meats and outstanding dairy produce, not to mention the abundance of seafood.

When visiting this region, a stop at one of the farmers’ markets offers the opportunity to taste the delights of local foods, see what’s in season and what the locals are buying and perhaps have a natter with members of the local community.

In each town, the local farmers’ market usually operates on a certain day of the week and the timing and location can change. If you intend visiting any of the Farmers’ Market on your South Devon holidays, they advise that you contact them in advance to double check times and location.
