Authentic and friendly, the market has become a hive of activity in its own right. Get ready for a festival of smells, colours and flavours to be savoured with an accent! This is the place to fill your shopping baskets.
Every Saturday morning, more than 190 market gardeners and winegrowers are waiting for you. Imagine strolling along the lively aisles where local producers will greet you with a smile, proud to share their local treasures with you.
Head for the stalls brimming with juicy fruit, crunchy vegetables and artisan specialities, creating a veritable sensory palette to tantalise your taste buds. Let yourself be intoxicated by the sweet smell of seasonal strawberries, the freshness of green asparagus and the aromas of aromatic herbs.
Can you smell the cheese? Can you see a tall lady in her boater in the distance? Come closer, it’s Hélène from Ferme du Ramier. She’s waiting to let you taste her raw-milk products, straight from her maturing cellar, where over 6,000 cheeses are aged. We recommend the Printanier. As its name suggests, it’s a seasonal cheese: tender and soft, it ‘s as full of flowers as the season that characterises it.
