Haddington Farmers’ Market
Last updated 15 May 2026
East Lothian's main farmers market, held on the last Saturday of each month in Haddington town centre. East Lothian is Scotland's most productive arable region, so the vegetable and fruit stalls are the star — seasonal produce from farms within a 20-mile radius. Also strong on free-range eggs, local honey, and baking. Smaller than Edinburgh markets but the produce quality matches or exceeds them. Good parking in the town centre makes it practical for a car-based shop.
