The Farmers Market On The Terrace is Back
The Farmers’ Market On The Terrace is the market dedicated to fresh locally grown produce.
The original Farmers’ Market on the terrace is back from Friday 8th March 2013, 9am-1pm in a new location. Buy fresh, organic, local, affordable produce direct from the farmers under the shady palm trees in Jumeirah Emirates Towers Ballroom Garden. All your favourite farmers and artisans, including Baker & Spice, will be there. This community initiative supports farmers and makes the freshest goods available.
The vegetables and herbs are picked in the morning and are in front of you on the various market stands by 9am every Friday. The farmers are there to sell directly to you at the cheapest prices imaginable. The produce is so fresh it will last in your kitchen for a whole week. You don’t need to shop anywhere else!
The tradition of farmers bringing their bounty to town has been successfully revived in urban farmers’ markets all over the world, for good reason.
- We are all fed up with the disconnect between us, the consumers, and the people who grow our food.
- We are fed up with not knowing where our food really comes from and how long it spent in transit.
- We are fed up with not being able to tell how fresh it really is.
- We are fed up with produce we spent good money on, wilting to nothing in our kitchens in the blink of an eye.
- We are fed up with paying for food which has to buy an airline ticket to get to our table.
- We most certainly are fed up with industrial agriculture masquerading as real food.
So here is the alternative.
