Faringdon Country Market

The Faringdon Country Market (formerly the Faringdon W.I. Market) has been successfully trading in the Corn Exchange since 1986. It is part of Country Markets Ltd., a national organisation which is a membership-based, co-operative social enterprise selling home-made, home-produced and hand-crafted produce directly to the public (www.country-markets.co.uk). We are a “not for profit” organisation but cover operating costs by taking a 10 to 15% commission on producers’ sales.

Our weekly market is held every Friday morning from 9.00am until 11.00am (Closed Christmas to mid-January, Good Friday and 1 week in October when the Faringdon Art Society Exhibition takes place. Notice of these closures is always given well in advance.

Our comprehensive range of goods  includes:-
  • Baked goods (cakes and savoury items)
  • Preserves and honey
  • Locally grown and produced seasonal vegetables and fruit
  • Eggs and occasionally poultry cuts (in season)
  • A good variety of plants and cut flowers (again seasonal)
  • A wide range of craft items (including greeting cards, knitted children’s jumpers and toys, bags, scarves, hats, soaps and other perfumed items, jewellery and woodcraft).

All cooks have an up-to-date Food Hygiene Certificate and we have been awarded the accolade of “5 scores on the door” by the Vale of White Horse Environmental Health Department.

We have a thriving refreshments area enjoyed by our customers whose ages range from young mums with their babies and toddlers to nonagenarians
