Cuerden Valley Farmers Market - August

It was a lovely sunny day at Cuerden Valley Farmers Market today but it was still a bit quiet. Maybe everyone had gone to the Bolton Food Festival. We sold some ice cream and soup but very few black peas. We'll be back next month.

Hoghton Tower Farmers Market August

The weather forecast was bad for Hoghton Tower today so I wasn't expeting much but it was alright in the end, and didn't rain at all. It was a bit windy though. We were selling the first of my whinberry ice creams, there are still plenty left for the next few markets. We'll be back next month.

Ashton Market on the Square August

We were at this new market on Saturday. It was well run and organised with a dj in a gazebo playing music all day, which was a nice change. We were doing well, considering it rained some of the time and the weather forecasts had been terrible. Sadly in the afternoon it got freakishly windy and starting blowing the gazebos and all the stalls around so we went home so they could take the gazebos down. We'll go again if we can because I think it would be a good market on a better day.

Romiley Village Market - August

It was a very hot and sunny day in Romiley on Saturday and the market went really well. Thanks everyone who came along! The square was a lot busier than normal and a brass band came and played in the afternoon too. They were very good. We even sold some ice creams at the end.

Hoghton Tower Farmers market July

We were at Hoghton Tower today with soup, black peas and ice cream. It was quiet for sales till after twelve and we were getting worried, but then the rest of the day was pretty good. Thanks everyone! We'll be back next month.

Sadly just as we arrived home to my garage one of the wheels fell of our trailer. Lucky it was so close to home and not on the way. Now I have to go and get it repaired, I hope it is cheap.

Romiley Park Fun Day

We were in the park in Romiley today for their fun day. We were selling macaroni cheese, bakes and cheese. The macaroni cheese and bakes went very well and all sold out very quick. The cheese was a bit slow. It was a very hot nice day. Thanks everyone who came along! We'll be back at ROmiley Market in a couple of weeks.

Hoghton Tower Farmers Market and Classic Car Show - June

We were at Hoghton Tower for the Farmers Market and Classic Car Show on Sunday. It started very slowly and we were worried but luckily it got very busy after dinner and we had a good day, especially at selling black peas. It didn't rain till nearly three and then it hammered it down in a crazy monsoon style event. Everyone left so it was easy to get the stall down and luckily it stopped raining so we dried out. We'll be back next month for the normal Farmers Market.
