Local produce

The largest market in the area, we have over 30 stalls at each event ranging from vegetables, meat, fish and bread to chocolate, cheese and beer!

You can make a family trip with a great cafe and local shops in New Ferry.

Apply for a stall

With hundreds of visitors, Wirral Farmers' Market is a great place to trade.

The market is currently oversubscribed and we have limited space, however we hold a waiting list and should a registered stallholder be unable to attend we can offer people on the waiting list a temporary stall. Please complete the Application form to apply.

To maintain a balanced market we try to balance the types of produce on offer to give customers the widest possible choice.

Political Standing

The Market is not a political organization - we had some feedback after the April market about campaigning and our position is that the Market does not allow political parties to have a literature table or associate themselves directly or indirectly with the Market.

However people are free to come and talk to people at the market on a one-on-one basis as long as this is not intrusive and the organization does not infer the support of the Market.

The organizers would appreciate advance notice from any organization who wishes to campaign during the market.

Over £26,000 given to local charities since 2003!

The Market is a Community project run by volunteers with the objective of supporting local charities and support groups. Since we began distributing money in 2003 we have given over £26,000 to local groups funding everything from sports kits to days out for the disabled. Click here for more more information.

In addition the profits from the cafe go the local Grove Street School.
