Residents have decided to do this, as it is a chance for all members of the community to support local farming businesses. There are already over 10 producers within a 28 mile radius of the area who supply all sorts of local foods ranging from fresh vegetables, eggs, granola, meat, cheese and lots more. The Food Assembly is also working with well-known vegan food enthusiasts Dr Legumes.

A recent visitor to the event said “as a new mum on a low income attending a local farmer’s market has been my anchor, providing me not only with quality, affordable produce but also a chance to feel present in my local community.”
