At the heart of food and farming since 2008, Helston Farmers' Market is the longest established Farmers' Market in the area, showcasing the very best local produce from the area.

Join the producers on Saturday, September 2 from 9.30am -12.30pm for a fantastic range of freshly local produce before they hand over the Helston Harvest Fair for a weekend of events.

Helston Harvest Fair falls on the first week-end in September, and is the last remaining fair-day of Helston. The committee work very hard to make it a week-end of fun to celebrate the fruits of autumn.
