The Hungry Nomad: Organic Farmer's Market at the Noordermarkt (Amsterdam, The Netherlands)

October 28, 2012

Organic Farmer's Market at the Noordermarkt (Amsterdam, The Netherlands)

Farmer's markets are one of my favorite places to visit when traveling, oohing and aahing over all the delicious produce. Actually, I love them even when I'm not on the move. They're like window shopping on the high street, but then for food lovers. 

Every Saturday at the Noordermarkt in Amsterdam you can find a lovely organic farmer's market, with your pick of organic fruits, veggies, cheese and bread. And now that the season of mushrooms and pumpkins is upon us, seas of deep browns and oranges are overflowing the stalls. A definite feast for the eyes. Really, the only downside to this market is that it's packed with people and that the prices surely are above your usual 'high street' level..

You can also find some nice stalls with non-food items, such as second-hand books and Dutch antiques. When I was still living in the Netherlands, I used to visit the Noordermarkt early on Monday mornings when all the stalls are filled with vintage clothing, bric-a-brac, fabrics & notions. It's a great time spent rummaging about and a definite plus is that the city is still so quiet and asleep, something which doesn't happen very often in Amsterdam.
