The municipal market of Valverde works from the premises that the town council opened in 2021 in the Santiago area of the capital of El Hierro. It was set up to push the primary sector as the backbone of local economic development policy and to create a selling point for island produce, with sustainable consumption and fair trading with local producers.
The stalls carry fruit and vegetables, livestock products, honey, baking and flowers, along with handicraft pieces. The council stresses that the goods are first quality, zero kilometre and of El Hierro origin, from fruit and vegetables to home made baking. Activities such as cheese tastings and workshops for children are programmed to liven up the shopping.
