Hoghton Tower Farmers Market - September



Hoghton Tower was a very wet and windy day on Sunday. We did ok considering the weather. We sold all our black peas and most of our new Mexican bean soup (which is very good if I say so myself, which I do). We'll be back next month with a lot more black peas as it will be properly Autumn then.

Smithills Food and Craft market - September



We were back at Smithills market this Saturday after it was closed for a month for the school holidays. The local MP came and opened it and Radio manchester were there too on a treasure hunt. We did well, selling cheese, cheese and onion pasties and ice cream. We'll be back next month, when it moves back to its usual dates of the second saturday in the month.

Inglenook Artisan market - September



Inglenook Artisan Market was good this month. We were selling carrot, red lentil and tomato soup and ice cream. We sold a lot of ice cream as it went really hot near the end. We 'll be back again next month with more soup and ice cream.

Mere Brow Farmers Market - September


Mere Brow was a bit quiet this month due to the Southport Airshow being on the same day. Never mind, we were still selling cheese, cheese and onion pasties and cheese and potato bakes. We'll be back next month as usual. These photos are before it started as we were setting up. Thanks everyone who came along!

Guide Dogs Open Day, Atherton - September



We were at the Guide Dogs Open Day in Atherton again this year on Sunday. Here's a few photos of our stall and the setting up of the site. It was a good day though the weather was a bit ropey, with drizzle every so often. There were a lot of people there. We sold a lot of black peas and a good amount of ice cream. Thanks everyone for coming!

Harpers Lane Allotments Open Day - August



The allotments open day went very well this year. We sold loads of cheese and loads of ice cream. Thanks everyone! Me and my dad have made the big new sign above in the second photo for the ice cream stall. The day was sunny except for an hour of heavy rain in the middle of the day, but it dried up again afterwards and didn't spoil the day.

Mere Brow Farmers Market - August



We had another good market at Mere Brow this month. It was very hot and sunny. We sold lots of cheese and all our pasties and bakes. We'll be back next month!
