Brixton Market

I went to Brixton Market with my friend Theo. We bought a cap and then we took pictures of all the different stalls in the market such as fresh fruits and bakery stall.

All of the markets that we knew of were certified and used known producers like the dairy seller that we spoke to.

That is pretty cool. We have similar markets like that in Maine but the are called farmers' markets! (:

The bread there looked really good! Yes, like AugustAnnie said, here in America we called them a Farmer's market. But the ones I've seen are NOWHERE as big as that market over there.
