Edinburgh Farmers’ Market
About

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Edinburgh Castle on Castle Terrace, the Edinburgh Farmers’ Market is a year‑round celebration of Scotland’s finest produce. Every Saturday from 9am to 2pm, over 40 local producers gather to offer fresh, seasonal goods direct from farm to table. Stalls brim with prime cuts of beef, lamb, pork, and venison, alongside just‑picked fruit and vegetables, artisan breads, farmhouse cheeses, handmade chocolates, preserves, and craft beers. Many traders come from the surrounding Lothians, Borders, and Highlands, ensuring authentic regional flavours. The market has earned multiple awards, including Slow Food Scotland’s Market of the Year, and is as much a social occasion as a shopping trip, with regular tastings and the chance to meet the people behind the produce. Whether stocking up on ingredients or enjoying a leisurely browse, visitors experience a vibrant slice of Edinburgh life rooted in quality, sustainability, and community spirit.
