VELLERON
Daffodils signal the start of spring.
VELLERON
Operating in the early evening, one of the best Marché Agricoles is held here. You can buy freshly picked produce direct from the grower or producer. Velleron is about 25 minutes drive from Caromb.
AVIGNON
Operating daily each morning, Les Halles in Avignon gives you the chance to sample seasonal Provençal produce as well as Corsican beers and cheese.
AVIGNON
Fresh poultry and game available at Les Halles.
CARPENTRAS
A huge mixed market, the Carpentras market is a place where you can buy fresh produce, clothing and at the same time get those little extras to furnish your house. Make sure you give yourself plenty of time for browsing.
CARPENTRAS
Earthenware pottery – there’s lots to consider - the mortar and pestles used to grind garlic and basil for the pistou to be added to soups, the earthenware jars for olive oil, or the “tian” used as the braising pot for the famous wine beef daube (stew).
RICHERENCHES
From November to March the site of a “secret” truffle market. It’s for professionals only, chefs or their agents, but you’ll enjoy the subdued theatre of this experience.
BASIL
The main ingredient in pistou, a Provençal staple that's perfect as a sauce for pasta or for flavouring roasted fish.
L'ISLE SUR LA SORGUE
Produce, antiques and secondhand goods – there’s so much to see at the renowned Sunday morning market.
COUSTELLET
Old varieties of tomatoes bursting with flavour.
VELLERON
One of the many producers selling a single (perfect) type of produce.
