Get here early on a Saturday or Sunday morning and you'll find the Tegueste valley doing what it does best: more than thirty local growers laying out whatever the week brought in. Seasonal fruit and veg, warm artisan bread, island cheeses, honey, eggs, wine, flowers and the odd table of handmade bits. It's free to wander, and most stallholders are happy to chat about what they're selling, even if your Spanish is patchy.
The food area is the bit to linger over. Grab a tapa, find a seat under the pergolas and watch families catch up over coffee while kids peel off to the playground. Look out for the old 1930s threshing machine on display, restored and parked up as a nod to the valley's farming roots. Doors are open from 8am until 2pm, and it runs all year. A short drive from La Laguna, and worth the detour.
