5 Farmers’ Markets To Check Out This Weekend

There is a thriving agricultural industry in Singapore! Check out these weekend farmers’ markets for some outdoor fun and learn where your food came from.

by Atika Lim  /   October 13, 2016

Get your supply of local farm produce such as vegetables, fruit, herbs, eggs, fish and milk at this quarterly event at Kranji Countryside organised by the Kranji Countryside Association.

Cited as Singapore’s first authentic local farmers’ market, these events also showcase local artisanal food and products, community workshops and fun family activities. Sounds interesting? Don’t miss the second Singapore Farm Festival happening on October 29 and 30.

2. Gillman Barracks Farmers' Market

This lively street market at Red Baron within Gillman Barracks celebrates all things fresh and local where you can meet local farmers and growers for a morning of food, farm and conversations.

Budding growers can also participate in the community gardening while the rest of us without green thumbs can try our hands at other activities such as woodworking and silkscreen printing.

Keep a look out for their next farmers’ market, here.

3. Farmers' Market at Loewen Gardens

This monthly market at The Pantry at Loewen Gardens is not to be missed if you are passionate about produce. Chat with the stallholders as you get some organic vegetables, cheeses, breads, pasta, wine and olive oil.

If you need a break, indulge in delicious coffee and sweet treats on site. Definitely worth getting up early on a Saturday morning for. Visit website for details.
