THE biggest annual national celebration of British
food and drink takes place between September 17 and
October 2, 2016.
The campaign, launched in 2002, is held in the Autumn
at the same time as harvest festival and has become
THE opportunity for anybody working in any aspect
of food and drink to promote all that is great about
British food and the benefits of buying and eating from
our home produced larder.
Every year businesses and organisations across the
UK take part, enjoying the commercial benefits that
participation brings.
WELCOME to Louth ...
... a traditional English market town where agricultural heritage
and wealth of fresh local produce justify the town’s claim
as “The larder of Lincolnshire.” Some of the nation’s finest
vegetables, meat, poultry, game, cheeses and breads are
produced, distributed, sold and enjoyed here. They include
famed Lincolnshire sausages, plum bread, stuffed chine,
samphire and other local delights, available in award-winning
shops and eateries as well as the town’s lively street markets.
But Louth has more than quality food – it is a true
shopping experience. Unlike towns that have lost
their family-owned stores to the big High Street
chains and supermarkets, Louth has an abundance
of speciality shops selling everything from fashion to
furniture, crafts to cookware and to suit all budgets.
Add all this to Louth’s Georgian charm, friendly
people, magnificent church and ideal location
between the tranquil Lincolnshire Wolds and the
coast and you have a place you will want to visit
time and time again!

Louth Markets
Farmers’ Markets
Louth has been holding weekly
markets since at least King Henry
III granted Louth its first charter in
1236, although it is thought that
markets existed before then.
Louth enjoys two Farmers’
Market each month - on the
second Friday and fourth
Wednesday. There are extra
markets at Christmas.
Today general markets are held in the
Cornmarket and on the Market Place
each Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
The wide selection of stalls includes
a number of popular food stalls
selling organic vegetables, vegetarian
specialities, herbs, homemade
cakes as well as the ever popular
fresh fruit and vegetable stall.
Look out for top quality local
producers selling cheeses, honey,
pork products, beef, ostrich and
lamb. Radio 4 Food Programme’s
award-winning vegetable
producers also are there.
