News & stories
Atmosphere, recipes, vendors and behind the scenes. Short pieces from a market that moves slowly enough to make you pause.
A monthly email with the latest articles, recipes, and conversations from the market.
Atmosphere
What does a market smell like? We tried to capture it in five scents, and discovered that the sixth one is the most beautiful.
Vendors
Tartines that took thirty-six hours, a queue at eleven o'clock, and a baker who enjoys people watching.
Behind the scenes
The market is set up before sunrise. A morning timeline, from the first car at half past five to the first visitor at half past nine.
Recipes
A summery savory tart, straight from a village in the Drôme.
Vendors
Jewellery inspired by the sun and scents of Provence.
Atmosphere
A notebook on a kitchen table in Wassenaar, a Provençal summer somewhere in 2015, and one question that would not leave: can we bring this feeling home?
Atmosphere
A French village square in the Netherlands. Brocante, delicacies, jewellery, art and craft, at a market where you truly slow down.
Atmosphere
How a simple corner with a few chairs keeps visitors lingering, and why that's the heart of the market.
Recipes
A Limousin classic that looks difficult but isn't. Five ingredients, one baking dish, half an hour in the oven.
Atmosphere
Ask the visitors after eleven, and they will not say "I bought a ring." They will say "I slowed down."
Vendors
Behind each booth stands someone who has spent years, sometimes decades, devoted to one craft. A brief tribute to our participants.
