DID YOU KNOW???? π€
There is a network of about 140 Country Markets across England and Wales. Sadly these numbers are reducing as the need for everything at high speed and convenience takes over. π’ Please support your local market. ποΈπ we are also a place of community and friendship and many markets run cafes that are a perfect place to meet up with your friends for a weekly chat over homemade cakes and drinks. π«βοΈπͺπ©π°π§π₯§π₯π₯π₯―
Hereβs a bit more information from the website link below. π and you can see a small selection of our market pages, when you travel in the UK please look for the market local to you and call in, theyβd love to welcome you π see you in Wroughton every Friday 9-11am
βWe have been selling homemade baked goods, preserves, garden-grown fruit and vegetables, plants, and handmade crafts for many years. Visitors to these markets can buy a variety of produce β almost anything local and seasonal that can be produced in a domestic kitchen or garden or handcrafted at home.
Country Markets also sell meat, fish and dairy goods, honey, and eggs from local small producers.
Country Markets are often held weekly in a variety of venues in cities, towns and villages and Producers also participate in local events. Village Markets, County, Agricultural and specialist food shows.
Producers, who are Members of this Co-operative Social Enterprise called Country Markets, are organised into local Co-operative Societies registered under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014.
Membership is open to anyone over the age of 16; the cost of joining is just 5p for a shareholding. Everything is sold co-operatively; producers receive payment at the end of every month for their sales, minus a small commission to cover running costs and insurance. Commission is only paid on what you actually sell on the day of your market. You do not pay for a table/space. We share the workload cooperatively.
If you are interested please get in touch with your local market they would absolutely love to meet you.β
