Shopping : Best of the City
Boerenmarkt
Noordermarkt, Amsterdam
Description:
WESTERN CANAL RING / JORDAAN. Every Saturday (except in bad weather), this charming organic farmers' market takes over the Noordermarkt square, setting up shop at the foot of the Noorderkerk church. Just over thirty years old, it was the country's first organic market and all manner of 'biologisch' products can be found here. It's a delight wandering amongst the traders and bohemian shoppers, picking out delicious cheeses, meats, olives and fresh bread, and sampling free goodies while buskers play quality music. There's also a small playground if you're traveling with children, and the café on the corner (Café Winkel) sells the best apple pie in town! Hours: Sat 9am-4pm
