Campagna Amica

Campagna Amica Farmers market in Rome

In my opinion, Campagna Amica del Circo Massimo is the best farmers’ market in Rome. This is right near Circus Maximus, where food producers and farmers from the Lazio region come on Saturdays and Sundays to sell their locally-produced fresh foods. You can easily spend several hours trying and buying the best cheeses, cured meats, olive oil, wine, honey, truffles, sausages, and fish. Moreover, there is a courtyard where you can order food in one of the small food trucks and make a short break during your grocery shopping. 

  • Address: Via di  S. Teodoro 74
  • Working hours: Sat 9 am – 6 pm; Sun 9 am – 4 pm. The market is closed on Sundays in July and throughout August.

Campo de’ Fiori

Campo dei Fiori Farmers Market in Rome

Campo de’ Fiori is Rome’s most famous and easily reachable market. At the same time, this is where you will meet more tourists than locals. On average, prices are lower than in other shops, especially when comparing prices on liqueurs, spices, pasta, and other delicacies in souvenir shops. Also, if you have time to visit different local farmers’ markets, you will most probably find foods for an even lower cost. Campo de’ Fiori market is impressive for its diversity of Italian food souvenirs, where you can try anything you want before purchasing it. Moreover, there are many fresh fruit and vegetables on any choice. I recommend you to try Macedonia or spremuta (fresh juice).

  • Address: Piazza Campo de’ Fiori
  • Working hours: Mon-Sat 6 am – 2 pm; closed on Sundays

Farmers Market Garbatella

Farmers Market Garbatella Rome

Recently, I’ve noticed that more and more tourists decide to stay in the Garbatella district during their Roman holiday. Of course, this option is good only if you travel by car (traveling by car is not the best idea in the Eternal City). However, if you decide to visit the area of Garbatella, you will see lots of beautiful buildings and graffiti, but you also can visit its local farmers’ market. The market is full of fruit and vegetables, tasty pastries, sauces, fruit juices, cakes, and jams, where all foods are produced in the Lazio region. Moreover, the market is known for its fresh fish and seafood from Terracina, south of Rome.
