organic market Haarlemmerplein in amsterdam

This market can be found every Wednesday. Often the market vendors here are also the makers of the product they sell and are therefore closely involved in the production. Nice!

Minervamarkt

This is not a large organic market, as there are only about ten stalls. But you will find plenty of products there and if you are in the area, be sure to check it out.

De Kemphaan, Almere

more farmers and organic markets in amsterdam just a short ride from the city

urban farm Almere

Every Saturday there is an organic market at the Stadsboerderij in Almere. First get the groceries, then a quick tour of the yard. Look in the stables, or have a drink in the grass. I thought this was one of the nicest discoveries when we stayed at De Kemphaan last year!
Kemphaanpad 14, Almere – every Saturday morning – stadsboerderijalmere.nl

the Lindenhoff Marché

This remains so much fun to do, because the little roadtrip to De Lindenoff is already such a joy. First some shopping, afterwards a drink and small bite in the cafe or garden. With kids it’s also nice to look around in the stables. if you’re not having a car you can always go by e-bike! And did you know they also deliver at home throughout the Netherlands?
Rijksstraatweg 21, Baambrugge – Thursday: 12.00 – 17.30, Friday: 09.30 – 17.30, Saturday: 09.30 – 16.30 – lindenhoff.nl
