Faaaaarrrrrrmer's Marrrrkets & Faarrm Shops
Aside from the stalls selling garlicky olives (taking the piss a bit - even with the greenhouse effect it'll be a while before Wiltshire or Norfolk can get olive groves going), they're ace.

Got a local one on the way home from work - champion faggots made from Gloucester Old Spot piggies.

The other week I bought some hogget best end of neck. No, I'd never heard of it either - lamb is from sheep under 1 year old, mutton is from sheep over 3 years old, and hogget is from a sheep between those ages. Woolly teenagers, if you will.

Slow roasted, with anchovy fillets, sliced garlic clove, and sprigs of rosemary inserted into cuts made on the surface.

Just.
Fucking.
Lush.

I'm never buying cheapo supermarket lamb again. I've got the crumblies coming to dinner over the bank holiday week and I'm seriously thinking of trying a leg of roast mutton, if the hogget was anything to go by...

I'm with Mark Thomas on this
If you're going to sell stuff at a farmer's market you'd better actually be a farmer.
