Welcome to Our Blog

Do you love food markets as much as we do? Are you excited about fresh fruits and veggies in season, freshly caught fishes, or foods produced as they were harvested? Then you are at the right place.

We are South Africans that love food markets and love to talk about them. We also wish to answer your questions with the articles that will be posted on our page.

Do you want to know where the cheapest and best farmers’ markets are? Do you want to know what foods are in season? What do you want to know? Our blog posts will give you the answer.

So stay tuned for marketonthewharf.co.za, we are coming in big with brief but interesting articles on the food (farmers) market in South Africa.

What Can You Expect?

In simple words, articles on food markets in South Africa. However, that’s too vague. See what you can get by scrolling through our blog.

You can stay up to date on the seasonal foods

Not everyone knows what fruits are in season. With a local grocery store, you can get all you need all year round regardless of the season, but they aren’t as fresh and tasty as the ones sold in a farmers market.

So whether you want to know what foods are in season so that you can look forward to the amazing dishes you can make with it, or you just want to know for research’s sake, we’ve got your back.

We know how it feels to taste the real flavors in foods that didn’t sit in storage. That’s why we will help you enjoy the season and show you what you need to know.

Chefs can know more about their foods

There is so much more to a piece of food item than the taste – sweet, sour, bitter, etc., and chefs know that. The stories there are to tell include how it was grown, the kind of soil it was planted on, the method of fertilization, the type and variety of seeds, and so on.

So if you want to know how different one vegetable is from the other or how the soil type affects the taste or look of produce, then our posts are for you.
