We’d like to thank everyone who shopped at the February 2021 West Malling Farmers Market. Your support is much appreciated by all the stallholders.

The next farmers market in West Malling will take place on Sunday 28th March. Remember that the clocks go forward at 1am on Sunday 28th March.

With the current restrictions we can only allow a limited number of people in the market at any one time. A gentle reminder that there is a one way system in place at the market with the entrance at the Kings Hill end of the High Street. A socially distanced queueing system is in place to enter the farmers market. In the current National Lockdown outdoor markets can continue to take place selling essential items including food and drink, however non essential items such as some of the craft stalls currently can not attend the farmers market.

We place a list of the stallholders due to attend the farmers market during the week leading up to farmers market day.

Stay safe and well everyone and we look forward to being back in West Malling on Sunday 28th March

We received confirmation on Monday 22nd February that West Malling Farmers Market can take place this coming Sunday 28th February between 9.30 and 1.30. The market will be food and drink stalls only in line with current government restrictions. A one way system is in place at the farmers market and most stallholders accept contactless card payments too

We ask everyone visiting the farmers market to follow these guidelines:

Please wear a face covering whilst you are at the market, unless you are exempt.

Please sanitise your hands at stations provided around the market

The market has a capacity of 80 shoppers at any one time. If this number is exceeded then you will be asked by the marshalls at the market to queue socially distanced outside of the market area

Please keep 2 metres away from the stallholders and other customers

Please shop alone wherever possible

Please keep the time you spend at the market to a minimum

Please do not congregate in numbers

Sadly we have had to postpone the farmers market due to take place in West Malling this coming Sunday 24^th January. It was a very difficult decision to make but came following requests by the Local Enforcement Officer to not encourage more visitors to West Malling High Street. 

COVID safety measures are in place within the farmers market with marshalls, one way system, restricting the number of people within the farmers market at any one time etc., and these have all been observed by local enforcement officer at previous farmers markets it is the increase in numbers of visitors to West Malling for the farmers market which is the Local Authorities concern.

A number of the cafes in West Malling are offering take away services and queues are regularly causing problems in the town. 

The situation will be reviewed in the coming weeks in discussion with the Parish Council and Local Authority.

Some of the West Malling Farmers Market stallholders will be offering a delivery service including:

Arcade Fisheries

Naked and Ready

Far Acre Farm

The French Deli

St Apple Hurst Roast

We hope that you respect the difficult decision that we have had to make and we hope the farmers market returns soon.  

Stay safe and take care
