FARMERS' MARKET CONTINUES TO GROW

By Jenny Barraclough

After a very busy and successful Capel-le-Ferne Christmas market, January tended to be on the quiet side, with many of our stallholders having a well-earned break.

February, however, is now proving to be very fruitful as we have 3 new stalls and a possible 4th coming soon.

Country Store is one of our new stalls, selling everything from dried prunes, butter beans, lentils to sunflower seeds, very healthy ! Our second stall is not quite as healthy but is delicious (as is everything that is not good for you!) which is The Chocolate Drop, selling â€˜gorgeousâ€™ home-made chocolates â€“ there was quite a queue around this stall last week, I think the new years resolution of losing weight went straight out the window when customers saw this stall!

Our third one, starts this week (14th) selling Curries in several flavours, and more besides. Haji Baji sell at the Badminton Horse Trials, so that should be a good recommendation.

The 4th new stall will remain a secret at this stage, as it has yet to be confirmed!!!!!!

Do come and visit our market, every Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the village hall, Lancaster Avenue, where you will find an average of 20 stalls per week,, all selling local produce, We also provide refreshments and an on-site Post Office (which is useful when you run out of money!)

Telephone Jenny 01303 245399 for further information if required or visit our website www.capelleferne.info
