This three-hour guided walking tour takes place on a Sunday and is led by a Londoner who shares local stories and information throughout. The tour begins at Broadway Market, where participants spend about 25 minutes exploring the Sunday street food and craft market, sampling food and browsing handmade items. From there, the group walks 10 to 15 minutes to Hackney City Farm, a community-run urban farm, and stays for around 20 minutes.
