Here are the 'abridged rules' set by Certified Farmers' market (FARMA) to for recognised markets to adhere to. Here are a couple of relevant extracts, which could apply to my research:
'There are two types of local definition that FARMA recognises:
Local as a radius
* Local is a defined as a radius from the market. A definition of 30 miles is ideal, up to 50 miles is acceptable for larger cities and coastal or remote towns and villages.
Local as a county boundary
* The definition of local may also be a county boundary or other geographic boundary such as a National park that is similar in size to the radius option.'
'The prime aim of the market must be to develop a vibrant environment where consumers and producers are brought together'
