End of Season Markets

We will continue to put out various items for you to taste during the run up to Christmas, so please order once you have made your choice to ensure you get what you want, when you want. Don't forget Boxing Day!

Our last markets of 2009 will be on Friday 18th December and Tuesday 22nd December

We will not be back until Friday 5th february 2010 so remember to stock up your freezer for January.

Our Taster Day

Our Friday Taster Day hopefully was a great success. Many people sampled some of the tempting items on offer and then either placed orders or took away an order form to bring back another week. As the Christmas period is hetic for all our producers, both for the market but also on a personal basis we do ask our customers to place their orders as soon as possible, especially if they require Christmas cakes or puddings or rich fruit cakes as these do take some preparation and of course are more tasty if made in advance with time to mature before cutting into and eating!!

All your usual favourites, including Christmas cakes & Puddings, Mince pies, Sausage rolls and various other savouries - then Bacon, Sausages and Cooked meats; Chutneys & Preserves - so lots to try for everyone.

We will have our order forms available and a £5.00 deposit will secure your order.

Our Craft section will also be on display with cards and clothing perhaps just that stocking filler you are looking for and Christmas wreaths and Table Floral displays will also be on show.
