  • Can I pay by card?
    Our own stalls take both cash and card. The market also has visiting stallholders, and we cannot speak for how each of them takes payment, so it is worth bringing some cash as well.
  • Is there somewhere to sit?
    Yes. There is plenty of seating in the shaded beer garden, where the live music plays, and more seating in and around the market. On warm days, bring a blanket, pick up a few treats and make a picnic of it.

    Yes. Well-behaved, sociable dogs are welcome at the country market. Please keep them on a leash.

    Yes. There are children's activities and play areas, and tractor rides are a gentle way to explore the farm and meet the animals.

    Tractor rides are R20.
  • Can I buy Camphill's own products at the market?

  • How does coming to the market support Camphill?
    Residents are part of the day: they help run stalls and activities, and they welcome visitors. Coming along supports Camphill Village and the work we do with our residents.
  • What is the KFM award the market keeps being nominated for?
    The KFM Best of the Cape Awards. Our country market has been nominated for Best Market for four consecutive years, from 2023 to 2026, and in 2026 it was named one of the Top 5 Best Markets in Cape Town.
