Markets worth the trip
Crowborough Farmers' Market

Heathfield Farmers' Market
A monthly farmers' market in the Co-op car park — local produce without needing to travel far into the countryside for it.
Icklesham Car Boot Sale

Lewes Farmers' Market
A weekly farmers' market at the historic Market Tower — local producers, baked goods and seasonal produce, right in the middle of town.
Old Brewery Yard Market
A monthly market in a Hastings courtyard — fruit and veg, artisan food, street food, vintage, arts and crafts and jewellery, run in partnership with a local enterprise centre.
Seaford Car Boot Sale
A seafront car boot on the Esplanade — good for an early wander before the town wakes up properly.
