Agricultores de Gure Lurreko Merkatua Market
Gure Lurreko Merkatua—the market of our land—is one of the most important farmers’ markets in Bilbao and an essential showcase for local Basque products. Gure Lurreko Merkatua brings together baserritarras (traditional farmers from the Basque Country) offering vegetables, eggs, artisanal cheeses, honey, cider, and txakoli from the lands of Bizkaia at a monthly event held in downtown Bilbao. Gure Lurreko Merkatua is a regular fixture for lovers of locally sourced food and the finest Basque cuisine, featuring products with short supply chains and guaranteed origin. With the Nervión estuary in the background and Bilbao’s urban atmosphere all around, it’s a must-visit destination to discover Bizkaia’s rural bounty right in the heart of the city and sample the produce directly from the producers themselves.

A little background
he baserri—the Basque farmhouse where family farming in the Basque Country has traditionally been organized—is the historical foundation upon which the associations of baserritarras have been built, and these associations now market local products in Basque cities. In Bilbao, promoting local produce has been a recent priority for the Bilbao City Council and the Basque Government’s Department of Agriculture and Fisheries.
Gure Lurreko Merkatua is part of this initiative and takes place in downtown Bilbao as a monthly market featuring local produce, with the participation of cooperatives of farmers from Biscay. It is a must-see event on the Basque gastronomic calendar and one of the best opportunities to discover Basque farm-to-table cuisine right in the city itself.
