The main reason to visit Crediton Farmers Market is to buy food that is local, fresh, full of flavour and at its best. Our stallholders are the primary producers, working from field to fork, and at the market they sell only what they grow themselves or otherwise create. You can find out exactly how the produce came to be at the market, how it was reared, where was it grown, how was it made, whether it is organic, what breed or variety it is, how to cook it. Just ask the stallholder! They will all be willing and very happy to tell you how they farm and produce their wares.
Virtually everything at the market has been grown, reared, harvested, baked, cooked, smoked, or processed well within 10 miles of the market site. This has obvious benefits for the consumer. For example, fruit and vegetables can be picked the day before the market and driven the few miles to the town square, instead of being flown halfway around the world to a central packing house before then being driven hundreds of miles to a supermarket. There are also many environmental benefits to the shopping at your local farmers market – the food-miles are lower and the carbon footprint is smaller than the equivalent produce might be at an out-of-town supermarket. And market produce isn’t covered in layers of unnecessary plastic packaging.
Food doesn’t have to be organic to be high quality. Many of our producers don’t use chemicals or pesticides and have very high standards of livestock welfare without being certified by the Soil Association. Some are also certified by The RSPCA Freedom Food Assurance Scheme. Many rear free-range animals. If you want to know what is in your food and you want to be confident that it has been reared and grown to the highest standards and values then visit Crediton Farmers Market.

Dart Fresh Produce has been a family run business since 1957, supplying produce to the Wholesale, Multiple, Retail and Catering Trades.
We work very closely with many local and national growers, making sure we are guaranteed the best quality British produce throughout the seasons.
As the seasons change, and it is not possible for British produce, we go from continent to continent to gather the finest fresh produce. This allows us, and you, to get it in its prime condition.
We can now source most produce 12 months a year by following the changing seasons across the globe.
We offer fresh deliveries 6 days a week, a second delivery for those busy days, as well as deliveries on Sundays and bank holidays for those little emergencies too. This is all for our varied customer base across the South West.

Beautiful, bespoke, hand-sewn leather goods. Ethically sourced materials, made in the UK. All of our products are guaranteed for life. We are a very social enterprise.
There are many companies and organisations that are happy to sell you beautifully made stuff, with exquisite packaging and a slick website. We believe that there is a growing collective concern about the origin of the materials used and how the artists and back-office staff are recruited, trained, treated, remunerated and respected.
Bags of Genius CIC is very different, we will actively be seeking to locate, train and recruit team members that most organisations wouldn’t even talk to let alone employ.
This may sound bonkers, but the core of what Bags is about is improving the lives of everyone we interact with - from the homeless person, to the ex-prisoner who can’t get an interview, to the housebound person who cannot get a real job, to someone who is ex-forces [military veteran] and dealing with mental health trauma and employment prejudice.

At John Patt's we are firm believers in using as much locally produced produce as possible. As you are aware not only is it fresher and tastier, but at the same time we are all supporting our local growers and local economy as a whole. We have good local growers growing for us and we also work very hard to source products from the Southwest and Cornwall when local is not available. We strive to pay our growers a good price for a good product to enable them to invest in the future and continue to supply us with their quality product for many years to come. From cauliflower/cabbage from Braunton, swedes and jacket potatoes from South Molton and eggs and potatoes from Bideford, we have the finest range of locally grown produce.
