  A wonderful vegetable box scheme, and great open days - traceable foods and as few food miles as possible

  We visited while on holiday, and I wish there had been room to take more stuff home. I don't think I've ever seen such a huge range of produce. I can't think of anything they hadn't got! Our daughter is still enjoying a real liquorice stick she bought there. Crowded, but for a good reason!

• On The Belfry Deli and Café:

  A good range of foods from all over. Great lunches too.

• On Pier 36:

  Went here while on holiday. We had one of the best lunches ever. Very friendly staff, especially the lady (owner?) with the great sense of humour who had cartoon skills and drew pictures of elephants for our daughter, and who liked her rather naughty t-shirt with cats' heads on the front & tail ends behind!

  Delicious breads, friendly staff, though they were surprised to find us asking for a food festival that had been advertised online, but which doesn't take place until (possibly) next year. They did try to find out for us and someone else who'd phoned about it.

  I'd researched the market for our recent holiday in Northern Ireland, and we were thrilled to find a huge range of delicious cheeses, with samples, and a knowledgeable and friendly seller.

  This place has grown and grown...with good reason. They've put a lot of hard work in over the years and the results are fantastic. We no longer live locally, but used to get a veggie box delivered - the contents were always fresh and tasty.

  I always look forward to Gill's reappearance at Abingdon Farmers' Market for the all-too-short English apples season. There is a great number of varieties, all delicious, extending the season from late summer to early winter.

  Jane and Wendy are always smiling and friendly at Farmers' Markets. The sausages & burgers are superb, and the bacon from Dews Meadow is to die for!
