Markets

Visit the weekly and monthly markets throughout South Oxfordshire

Markets are a fantastic way to see food and drink being sold from the producers themselves. Walking through the stalls you get a chance to talk to the source of the food and ask questions before you buy. There are weekly and monthly markets throughout South Oxfordshire as well as occasional visiting markets.
