Our 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...Lyme Regis Farmers Market

The Melplash Agricultural Society Show is one of the South West’s premier agricultural exhibitions and is held at The West Bay Show grounds, Bridport, Dorset on the last Thursday before the August Bank holiday. Our 2024 Show will take place on Thursday 22nd August.

Our show really offers something for everyone!  The showground is packed full of exhibits including livestock, horses, homecrafts and horticulture.  There are over 400 trade stands selling everything from locally produced food to tractors… and plenty in between!

Newlands is the perfect base for The Melplash Show, just 7 miles between us. We have the Jurassic Coaster bus that stops directly outside Newlands which can take you to Bridport as well as Melplash's direct free bus service.

Events run throughout the year. Including a four day cookery course at Park Farm. All four days are completely hands on and you will learn all the essential skills based around Bread & Pastry, Meat, Fish, and Vegetables.
