Annual Agriculture Fair



This was an exciting event as usual. This took place on Ash Wednesday. It’s a day for all of the local crafters and farmers to come out and display their goods for sale. There were also booths where they sell local food, cooked the good old Caymanian way!!! Things like cassava cake, stewed turtle and a whole lot more!! This is a great stop for visitors to the island, to get to know the culture a little more. They also had activities to keep the kids entertained, like cake walks, and horseback riding. It’s a fun event for the whole family!!

Is there a local farmers market that sells fresh fruit, vegetables and the like?

Hi Nancy,

Yes we do have a local Farmers Market that sells fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as local meat. It is located in George Town.

For fruit fans who don't want to go searching too far, we always have fresh fruit plates available at Castro's and the Beach Bar and we do try to use local produce where possible. Fresh local limes for use in cooking and cocktails are usually available at the Thirsty Surfer as well...
