Organic food has inspired shoppers considerably in recent years. It has raised awareness about what we eat, shifting our focus away from the price of our consumables and making us more conscious of what we are actually putting into our mouths. Although we feel good about ourselves in these earth-conscious moments, there is an entire market that has been celebrating the healthiest foodstuffs since 1976- The Bryanston Organic and Natural Market. The Bryanston Organic and Natural Market is Joburg’s original outdoor market. At the centre of its success is the market’s emphasis on only the freshest and wholesome organic foods. Every Thursday and Saturday, the market comes to life with its cosy eateries, live music and delicious

When taking the M2 highway out of Joburg, it always feels a bit like you are participating in the poignant part of an expensive movie. With the massive buildings of the city to one side and the expanse of the Oriental Plaza on the other, you believe you could drive on forever. If you do continue driving south out of the city, taking the road beyond Soweto and towards Vereeniging, there is a surprise in store. In such close proximity to the bustling city centre are the lush farmlands of the region around Walkerville. It is in this setting that The Walkerville Farmer’s Market takes place. The market includes only the best organic and fresh produce, from vegetables, fruit, nuts, herbs, chickens, eggs and honey, to home-crafted

Sunday mornings are a unique time. They provide that important moment of solitude before the new week begins and the chance to lie-in, go to church or relax in the last few hours of weekend bliss. When all this relaxing is done, Sundays also mean a visit to one of Jozi’s favourite markets, Market on Main. Market on Main, as the name suggests, takes place at Arts on Main, in the Maboneng Precinct. It runs from 10am to 3pm each and every Sunday and also on the first Thursday of the month, from 7pm to 11pm. Made for the people of Jozi, by the people of Jozi, Market on Main aims to encourage inner city lifestyle, promote sustainable living and also to provide a relaxed and creative space for all who visit it.
