Hartlepool Farmers Market

We’re delighted to bring Northern Dales Farmers’ Market to Hartlepool every second Saturday of the month, from 9am to 2pm, at the National Museum of the Royal Navy, Jackson Dock, TS24 0XZ. It’s one of our more compact markets, but perfectly formed -full of local flavour, friendly faces, and stands that reflect our love for local.

Each month, our fantastic stallholders bring what they do best – meats, cakes, farm-fresh vegetables, preserves and more -everything grown, reared, baked, caught or made locally

You’ll often see stallholders like Wreford’s Farm, Mellanby’s Winter Vegetables, The Teesside Coffee Co, Free Range Eggs from Great Ayton, Yorkshire Dales Cheese Co, Caroline’s Homemade Preserves, Happy Paws Bakery, Kay’s Kitchen, Worsdale’s Farmhouse Baking and more.

Getting There & Practical Info

  • Location: The market is held in the grounds/car-park area of the National Museum of the Royal Navy, Jackson Dock, Maritime Avenue, Hartlepool. TS24 0XZ.
  • Time: 9:00 am – 2:00 pm – or until sell out!
  • Parking: There’s free parking available around the venue. The museum’s location by the dock also means good visibility and easy road access.
  • Accessibility: The venue is easy to find, and walking around between stalls is generally straightforward. Bring something sturdy for carrying your goodies home! Dogs on leads are welcome.

Local Area & What to Do

Because Hartlepool’s market is on the waterfront, at the Royal Navy Museum, there’s plenty to see and do around before or after your market visit:

  • Take time to explore the Museum itself – historic ships, exhibits, gift shop, café, and maritime heritage.
  • Walk along the quayside or explore Hartlepool Marina for beautiful views and fresh air.
  • Pop into local cafés, pubs or small restaurants close by for lunch or a relaxed drink.
  • If you’re staying the day, consider visiting other Hartlepool highlights: the Museum of Hartlepool, HMS Trincomalee (old sailing ship), or the Headland. Good options for families or those interested in history.

Why Hartlepool Farmers' Market Matters

  • Supporting local independent businesses—farmers, bakers, makers who produce goods locally.
  • Reducing food miles and promoting freshness.
  • Creating an event that’s inclusive: for people who love food, who love meeting the people behind the food, or who simply enjoy the atmosphere.
