A jewel in the crown of the Cumbrian food scene, Kendal Farmers Market is a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts and those seeking a taste of the Lake District's culinary scene.

Kendal Farmers Market is a vibrant and bustling gathering of local producers and artisans, set against the charming backdrop of our Lake District town. Held monthly, we showcase the region's rich agricultural heritage and commitment to sustainable, quality produce. You'll find a cornucopia of seasonal delights, from freshly harvested fruits and vegetables to artisanal cheeses, homemade preserves, and freshly baked bread. The market is not only a place to shop for exceptional local fare but also an opportunity to connect with the passionate farmers and makers behind the products. As you stroll through the market, the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the enticing aromas of freshly prepared foods create an unforgettable sensory experience.

You’ll find us in Kendal Market place, on the second and last Friday of each month between 8 am - 3.30 pm.
