Marktschwarmer – shop online from multiple farm shops in one place

I have made my first order at Marktschwarmer an online farm shop that brings together 5 farm shops in one place. They do deliver but at a price, they have a couple of drop off points for your online shopping so, I choose to pick up my shopping from Markthalle.

Once you have made your online order and paid then you receive an email with confirmation of your order and an order number plus the time slot you must pick up your shopping in. The farm shop collection point can’t be missed firstly because they are right at the main entrance to Markthalle and secondly they use and reuse these retro and highly vibrant plastic baskets.

I was really pleased with my first Marktschwarmer shop order, I don’t know it will replace my weekly shop at the supermarket but I hope that I will make an order once per month or so. Why, because I doubt I can always get to Markthalle for the two hour window they offer but I really like the low carbon footprint, minimal plastic packing and the exceptional quality that this online farm shop offers.
