For shoppers
Getting the best of it
Come early if you want bread and pastries, the good stuff goes by mid-morning. Bring a bag and a bit of cash; most stalls take card now, but not all. What's on the tables follows the season, so ask the growers what's just been picked. Half the fun is finding the stall you didn't know you needed.
For producers
Want to trade here?
Colchester Farmers’ Market takes local producers and makers. Apply for a stall, you'll deal with the organiser directly, not with us.
