Twenty-two local producers gather on Castle Hill
The monthly Farmers Market currently features 22 stall-holders. According to Visit Lincolnshire Events, they are genuine local farmers and primary producers, with 80% of the goods grown or produced in Lincolnshire.
The selection covers everyday ingredients as well as products suited to a weekend treat. Stalls may include cheese, organic bread, honey, jams, chutneys and pickles, alongside fresh and organic fruit and vegetables.
Meat and fish are also part of the advertised range. The listing names free-range pork and chicken, grass-fed beef and lamb, venison and fish among the produce available from participating businesses.
Lincoln Farmers’ Market is officially accredited with the National Association of Farmers Markets. Its position on Castle Hill places local producers among the cobbled streets and independent retailers of Lincoln’s historic Cathedral Quarter.
Artisan cakes, craft drinks and products for dogs
The market extends beyond fresh farm produce. Advertised stalls include flowers, plants and herbs, craft beers, Lincoln Gin, artisan chocolates and homemade cakes.
Shoppers can also look for eco-friendly skincare products, including organic soaps. Handmade dog treats are included in the published range, giving visitors with pets another relevant stop among the stalls.
The exact mix may depend on the businesses attending a particular market date. The source identifies the established product categories and current number of stall-holders but does not provide a stall-by-stall schedule for August.
