The Surrey Markets Ltd will host its next monthly farmers market in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, on March 7, 2026, bringing fresh local produce and handmade goods to the town centre. The event provides a space for residents to buy directly from farmers and small businesses instead of large supermarkets.
The market takes place in the outdoor mall of The Heart Shopping Centre from 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM. Around 20 to 30 traders are expected to sell seasonal vegetables, artisan bread, handmade crafts and hot street food.
Local businesses such as the Spanish tapas bar La Terraza have helped promote the event to encourage visitors to spend the day in town. The business improvement group Love Walton says the market is a key part of making the area a social and shopping destination.
The market sits alongside Elmbridge Borough Council’s wider 2024 initiative to support independent markets in the borough — a policy intended to boost footfall for nearby high-street shops. Because the stalls are located in the Heart’s partially sheltered outdoor plaza, the market traditionally operates regardless of the weather.
