Hythe Farmers’ Market was established in March 2004 by popular demand and continues to provide good quality local food to the people of Hythe and its environs.
The Farmers’ Market is now located in the Methodist Church Hall (between Chapel Street and Prospect Road) and is open on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays every month from 10am to 1pm. There are stalls selling free-range eggs, game, speciality and organic breads, cakes, meat, cheeses, vegetables and lots more.
The Farmers’ Market is run by volunteers and has stalls for most food categories. We pride ourselves on offering in-season produce at competitive prices in a friendly environment.
Kent Farmers’ Market Association represents most of the Farmers’ Markets in Kent (and some beyond).
Our objective is to:
help market managers and stallholders improve standards through guidance and training
promote best practice
encourage collaboration in marketing and purchasing;
help stallholders find outlets for their products;
advise new markets on establishing strong foundations;
stimulate the understanding of the benefits of local food;
drive up footfall and spend per shopper
promote farmers’ markets to the public.
We believe that farmers’ markets provide shoppers with high quality, nutritious, traceable, fresh local food and drink.
They act as business incubators, giving small food and craft enterprises a low cost opportunity to sell direct to the public.
They provide a social hub, provide vital local services and contribute to the development of robust and sustainable local economies.
