The Market Garden is a working farm shop in Stratton, just outside Cirencester, where you can buy fresh produce and local food directly from the people who grow and make it.
The shelves are stocked with vegetables and fruits picked that morning from their own fields or delivered daily from surrounding farms, along with artisanal breads, local cheeses, preserves, and chutneys made by regional producers. There's a deli counter too, offering ready-made meals and meat from locally reared animals if you'd rather not cook.
What draws people here is more than just the quality of the food. You're supporting the growers and makers working the land around you, helping to sustain the agricultural way of life that's shaped the Cotswolds for centuries. The farm sits within a landscape that's been cultivated for generations, so stepping in here gives you a tangible sense of that continuity.
Many visitors treat it as a proper stop rather than a quick errand, grabbing a coffee and pastry while passing through. Whether you're based in Cirencester and exploring the surrounding area, or travelling further afield, it's a practical place to pick up supplies if you're staying nearby. More importantly, it's somewhere you can actually see how food moves from field to your table in this part of the world.
