Biggar Farmers' Market

Last updated 15 May 2026

A small but well-regarded market in the upper Clyde valley, drawing producers from both South Lanarkshire and the northern Borders. Biggar punches above its weight for a town of its size — Errington Cheese (makers of Lanark Blue) and several organic vegetable growers are regular stallholders. The setting on the wide High Street is pleasant, and the town has a surprising number of independent shops for its population. About an hour from both Edinburgh and Glasgow, making it a genuine day-trip option from either city.
