- If you happen to be into Saturday markets, the proudly "slow town" of Sedgefield, which is located between George and Knysna in the South African Garden Route, has got a treat for you. Because there are not one, but three markets from which to choose. Each one with a unique atmosphere and an individual "vibe".
The Wild Oats Farmers Market has a selection of fresh farm produce and food stalls. For some reason the market closes at midday, right before lunch, so while it's a good spot to grab an early breakfast, it may not be an ideal lunch venue for those who prefer to get going a bit later over the weekend.
Next door to Wild Oats is the Mosaic Outdoor Village and Market, which is more on the craft side, but also with a good selection of food stalls. It's open later so is a good spot to discover some excellent, freshly made foods. And, you will also find some incredibly talented local artists showcasing their creations.
The Scarab Art and Craft Village is my personal favourite, with some excellent creations that you won't find anywhere else. There isn't much in the way of food, although the local craft brewery is a good spot to take a break, do some beer tasting and get a basic meal.
All 3 markets are pet friendly so your dogs are welcome.

I’m Chris Corbet; video creator, photographer and fan of road trips, outdoor adventures, nature and remote places. I hope my videos might help those who want to experience gravel travel & off road adventures, and who don’t care as much about the vehicle that gets them there, as they do about the journey itself and the destination. I try to provide useful tips and background information about the unusual places that we visit, as well as endeavouring to draw attention to conservation, my intention is always to inform, educate and entertain.
Remember:
There will never be a second chance to make a great first impression!

Since 2002 my favorite market... I have the pleasure every 5 years or so, but I know I will visit again.
Enjoy your next visit.

Thanks for taking the time to comment Ross, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
8:00 Raw materials...made me chuckle 😊

Thank you for the video.
I thought the Western Cape was in winter because everyone is walking around in shorts and sleeveless tops...😊
It is nice to see everyone out and about and enjoying the warm weather. Saturday markets are always the best place to spend your Saturday morning.
You're so right about a market being an excellent place to spend a Saturday. Actually the video was captured a couple of months ago when it was a lot warmer🌞 I don't think they will be walking around in short sleeves at the moment, it's been wet and cold recently.
Wild Oats market is a Farmers Market, and most of the stall holders get up at 4am in order to get their fresh produce to the market and set up in time for 7.30am open time. This is the main reason they close at 12noon.
Thanks for that insight Linda.
Closes at 12 as most of the fresh produce is sold and farmers want o to home
The food stalls shouldn't be affected, the other markets received the benefit though I suppose.
