Car park behind Notting Hill Gate Waterstones <br>
Access from Kensington Place via Kensington Church Street<br>
Saturdays, 9 am to 1 pm </font></font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">Everything at the farmers' market
is grown or produced by the seller. No one is allowed to sell another
farmers' produce. When you buy a processed food, such as cheese,
sausage or apple juice, the farmer not only makes the product, but
also grows the apples, rears the goats for cheese and the pigs for
sausage. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">All the farms at London Farmers'
Markets are within 100 miles of the M25. That means produce is fresher
than at the supermarket. It hasn't been sprayed with preservatives
or bruised in shipping. Because produce isn't wrapped in plastic,
you can touch and smell the fruit and veg. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">Expect unusual varieties. Our farmers
grow 122 different English apple varieties. Another grows heirloom
tomatoes, another white courgettes and striped beetroot. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">At the supermarket, greengrocer
and street market, all the vendor can tell you about the produce
is that it came from a wholesale market. At the farmers' market,
the farmer will tell you how it was grown, how it tastes and how
to cook it. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">IN SEASON JULY, AUGUST and SEPTEMBER
This is peak season. In addition to the spring crops, look for slicing
tomatoes, broad beans, beetroots, courgette en fleur, parsnips,
sweet peppers, onions, runner beans, several flavours of basil,
parsley, cut flowers, yellow and purple French beans, round carrots,
cauliflower, swiss chard, aubergines, and kohlrabi. 'Everbearing'
strawberries are still in season, as well as red raspberries and
currants. In August, blackberries come in. If it's been a hot and
sunny summer, the earliest eating apples, Discovery come to market
as early as August. By September, most apples and pears are coming
in. </font></p>
