MARKETS AND STALLS
The National Association of Farmers Markets can give you a detailed list of markets throughout Wales. The site explains that there is a general acceptance that the stall-holders would have grown, bred, caught, pickled, brewed, or baked the goods themselves. The emphasis is on creating benefits to the local community by helping local producers sell their goods near the point of origin.
