Rossendale Farmers' & Local Produce Market - Sale in Rossendale, Helmshore - Visit Lancashire
"Taking place on the first Sunday of every month, from 9.30am till 2pm the Rossendale Farmers and Local Produce Market offers over 30 stalls of locally grown produce. You can expect products to be fresh and great value for money.
A Farmers' Market is a place where producers from a local area sell their own produce direct to the public. The goods on sale are fully traceable and, because they originate locally.
Free admission and free parking."
I am contemplating the rare event of shopping.
I am disappointed with the limited scope of organic produce from supermarket deliveries.
Even Sainsburys and Ocado(Waitrose) have a limited range of organic fresh produce.
I would like the opinion of anyone who has visited this market,
.....do they have a fruit and veg stall? - I need to restock salad ingredients and fruit
.....is any produce there labelled 'organic'? - that would be ideal, but a small local producer is likely to be just as organic but not actually registered with the soil association.
I have mapped my route and travelled it on Google street view.
I am delighted that it won't involve any travel through any built up areas.
It is 30 years since I visited Helmshore and I am glad to see nothing changed, so I don't risk getting lost.
