The Hampshire farmers market will be in Andover High Street on the third Sunday of each month from February to December.

There were fears that the market would not continue after a fall in numbers of visitors during 2011. A “New Look” market started in January 2012 and wil continue this year.

Working as I do in the local farming industry I know how improtant the market is for showcasing local produce. The quality matches anything on offer in supermarkets. And it is produced locally. To keep the market and support local farmers we all need to use it. So why not take a look and see what it has to offer.
