Want to know exactly where your produce comes from? Then head to Gardeners Road Fresh Food Market every Saturday to meet growers like Rita Kelman from Kemp’s Creek, who supplies the market with more than 70 different chemical-free vegetables including all the leafy greens, varieties of beetroot, carrot and cauliflower, plus rarities like Amaranth and Malabar spinach. Get in early for Rita’s weekly special and you might even get a freebee!
The market also boasts homemade pies, quiches, cakes, jams, condiments and exceptional pasta sauces, as well as non-edibles: books, designer jewellery, fashion and more – all priced to be budget-friendly.
Make a day of it and stay a while – there's piping-hot, cooked-on-the-spot fish and chips, live music to entertain the family and a big car boot sale every third Saturday of the month.
