Clay Farm Market returns to Hobson Square!

The Clay Farm Residents’ community is proud of the various local volunteer initiatives it undertakes.

The Clay Farm Market originally launched to much fanfare in the summer of 2021, but due to various obstacles, it remained on indefinite hiatus.

Finally, the culmination of many years of negotiation and perseverance between residents, councillors, and council officers has delivered the return of the Clay Farm Market.

Operating every Saturday between 10am and 2pm, from Hobson Square, we are returning, initially at a smaller scale, whilst remedial works are ongoing to the external facade of The Clay Farm Centre. It is anticipated that these works will be completed by summer 2026 and then the market will return to its full capacity in the centre of Hobson Square.

While we are limited on the space available to us, you can find fresh and dried produce through our partnership with Westgate Market and Van Jarred Refillery. In addition to the Market, we are also hosting some of the best foodtrucks that Cambridge has to offer, initially starting with Steak & Honour and Pimp My Fish on alternating Saturdays, with Churros Bar satisfying everyone’s sweet side.

As this is a voluntary community initiative, all the benefits of this venture are for the Clay Farm, wider Trumpington and Greater Cambridge communities. Therefore, we ask that as many of you come to support us as we regather ourselves in the months leading to this summer, and, like us, we hope you are excited about the opportunity of The Clay Farm Market making a full return to Hobson Square later in the year, and for many years to come!

We hope that 2026 marks the year in which The Clay Farm Market creates a long-lasting legacy for the future!
