Closed: Survey on Lewes Farmers Market
From Friday 15 November to Friday 13 December 2024, Lewes District Council ran a survey to find out what local people, market traders, businesses and visitors think about the market.
The market started 25 years ago, at a time when there was only one other farmers market in England and is run by a local community interest group, Common Cause. Its principles are around local producers, environmental protection, high animal welfare standards, and minimum food miles and packaging.
The survey has now closed.
We were interested to know how people travel to the market, whether they do other things in Lewes on Farmers Market days, and thoughts on the current location and timings. We were also interested to know whether respondents are more or less likely to visit Lewes town centre on market days.
A summary of responses will be prepared for the Lewes District Council Policy and Performance Advisory Committee
