The fabulous Lyme Regis Farmers' Market is held on the second Saturday of the month in the Marine Parade Shelters.

They proudly bring together local producers, makers and growers from a 30 mile radius to create a diverse and fantastic shopping experience.
​
We think Lyme Regis is the perfect place for this eclectic mix of traders and products and gives shoppers the opportunity to find unique businesses and produce that they you might not see anywhere else, all in one place.

Although called our event a 'Farmers' Market' we are also welcoming local designers and makers to our event to create a rich and vibrant mix to showcase all the wonderful talent there is right on our doorstep. More information can be found here.
