Farmers' Markets
The
definition of a Scottish Farmers' Market is a market in which
farmers, growers and producers from throughout Scotland sell their
produce direct to the public. All foods/products sold should have
been grown, reared, caught, brewed, pickled, baked, smoked, or
made/prepared by the producer.
Local growers
and producers take personal pride in the food they bring to their
Farmers' Market and want you to enjoy it. The emphasis is on freshness,
quality and value for money.
Buying locally
means you can ask how the food is produced and grown and at the
same time customer feedback is appreciated by the producer.
Buying locally
also reduces food miles and the stages in the food chain from
fork to plate. It puts money back into the local rural economy
thereby sustaining and creating jobs.
Make the change
and buy from your local Farmers' Market.
