We present a method for generating random hypergraphs in context-free hypergraph languages. It is obtained by adapting Mairson's generation algorithm for context-free string grammars to the setting of hyperedge replacement grammars. Our main results are that for non-ambiguous hyperedge replacement grammars, the method generates hypergraphs uniformly at random and in quadratic time. We illustrate our approach by a running example of a hyperedge replacement grammar generating term graphs.
