First Sunday Market is a great success!
The first Sunday Community Market has been judged a great success by stallholders and customers alike. Several stalls completely sold out of their home-made bread, pies and Indian food by lunch-time! There was also locally produced meat, mushrooms, ice-cream, blended teas, bedding plants, craftsmen and women, as well as a team of flag-makers. Most stallholders were happy with their takings and promised to be back at the next market on Sunday 5th August.
Fee's bee's came for a day out to Marlbough in a closed hive, much to the interest of their many customers. Her bees collect nectar from flowering plants that are growing on nearby organic farms. The honey is processed naturally, without using heat and tastes delicious.
The cheese lady came all the way from Glastonbury: Green’s have been making cheese for four generations on the Somerset levels in the small village of West Pennard within site of the legendary Glastonbury Tor. They make Cheddar, Double Gloucester and goats cheese.
Hiro and his family grow their vegetables using the Shumei Natural Farming method, which involves planting carefully selected seed, without any inputs at all. These vegetables are grown on part of Yatesbury Biodynamic Farm, near Calne.
A huge 'thank you' to Ellie for working so hard to make it such a success.
