Our first ever Market@ on Saturday was a resounding success. Despite a downpour first thing in the morning, the skies brightened, and while we were safely ensconced inside our skittle alley, it certainly didn’t dampen our spirits or stop the crowds. Stalls for our first ever event included the brilliant rural photographer Jake Eastham, deliciously more-ish fairycakes by The Stardust Bakery in Frome, excellent quality meat from Stourhead, designer homewares by Bath company Treasury, bespoke and speciality teas by Lahloo, exquisitely handcrafted wooden furniture by Boon, just down the road in Woodlands, lovingly-restored vintage pieces for the home by In The Woodshed, hot offerings from Deer’s Leap Chilli, hand-turned wooden pieces made in the village, English fruit and veg, freshly-baked bread, village-smoked mackerel caught and smoked by Rob Dean, and some gorgeous items from our talented kitchen team – we sold out of pork pies, chocolate brownies and onion chutney!
The proceedings were helped along by Horningsham band Stamp, and our beer, cider and Pimm’s stall kept everyone well lubricated – including a few of the stallholders. We’re hoping for a gloriously sunny, English summer’s day on Saturday 4th July four second Artisan & Farmers’ Market@. If you’re interested in having a stall, please drop us a line or give us a call. We have an additional 5 stalls to give out this month.
