Skibbereen Farmers’ Market -
every Saturday - (9:30am - 1:30pm)
in Skibbereen, County Cork, Ireland
Welcome to the only official, up-to-date website for the Skibbereen Farmers’ Market.
This great market takes place every Saturday - (9:30am - 1:30pm), in the town of Skibbereen, which is about an hours’ drive west from Cork city, in the county of Cork, Ireland.
Last year (2011) Skibbereen market was ten years old! The revived market started trading in May 2001, and has taken place every Saturday since - come rain or shine.
To celebrate, we held a very special Birthday Market on Saturday 7th May - with all sorts of fun activities for kids and grown-ups, live music and entertainment, and all of your favourite traders with some very special ‘birthday’ offers.
There was live music, face-painting for kids, a best-dressed dog contest, and all sorts of attractions!
We’d like to say an enormous “Thank you” to everybody who made the day such a success - traders and customers alike - and we look forward to a great year’s trading in Skibbereen - and many more sunny Saturdays to come.
Every week at our Market you can find a brilliant range of fresh local produce, including fruit & vegetables, herbs, plants, eggs & honey, preserves, bread, cakes, organic meat, cheese, fish and shellfish.
In addition, the Market is the source of a diverse selection of quality local art & crafts, and provides a great hunting-ground for collectors of antiques, books and bric-a-brac.
