Within the Cairngorms community the Cairngorms Farmers Market is a vibrant part of the local economy helping small businesses find a market place for their products. Each producer takes their responsibility to the environment and the consumer very seriously every step along the line from field to fork or from studio to your home. They can often be heard discussing methods or techniques of production, optimum cooking times and recipes, animal husbandry and vegetable production, maintaining the beauty of the landscape and a host of other topics. There is no question they won't or can't answer!
