The Village Farmers Market every Saturday

THE Village Farmers Market is a fresh produce and craft market that takes place every Saturday from 08h00 till 13h00 at The Village complex in Windhoek. Entrance is free and everyone is welcome.

According to Deane Spall, one of the organisers, the event creates the perfect opportunity for friends and family to gather in a tranquil environment to socialise, buy fresh locally produced goods and engage in healthy lifestyle activities such as yoga and meditation.

“The market currently consists of vendors that sell farm-grown vegetables, home-baked bread, cured meats, artisanal cheese and a variety of baked goods, as well as some crafts. The market also caters for those who look to grow their own produce at home. Our vendors produce and sell high quality seeds, organic pesticides and prepared garden soil and grow material that should benefit any home gardener,” Spall said.

Wouter van Zijl, one of the owners of The Village said the inspiration behind the event is to create a platform where conscientious consumers can connect with local producers and other like-minded individuals to promote locally produced food and crafts.

“With this weekly market we wish to turn the mundane task of weekly shopping into something vibrant and fun for the entire family. The tranquil environment of The Village is the ideal place to spend a leisurely Saturday morning for the entire family. It is also the ideal opportunity to catch up with old friends,” van Zijl said.
