The Barn Market: Our very first market!

Sunday, 14 February 2010

Our very first market!

Yesterday saw our inaugural Barn Market and what a day it turned out to be!

Even though there were sprinklings of rain it didn’t keep the community away as people poured in to peruse the craft wares on offer. Many people reported that the barn was a spectacular venue with the courtyard serving as a beautiful setting to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee and a bbq item - yum yum. There was an array of unique craft products available including jewellery, stationary, children’s items, fudge, bath products, dolls, pottery, felt goodies, home wares and even some junk from the tip upcycled to create amazing little critters. And to top it off there was often a tapping foot or two to be found in response to the background tunes from a selection of buskers.

Thank you to everyone from the community who came out to support The Barn Market. Make sure you mark the date for our next market in your diary – you never know what you’ll find.

There are 2 rounds of applications that go before the panel each year. We are always looking for artisans who hand make, design and produce high quality and unique products. Please email us to request an application kit to become a stall holder at The Barn Market in 2015.

The next round of applications closes January 2016

Please be aware that some categories of products (such as jewellery and children's products) are now in abundance at The Barn Market. In order to avoid over saturation of any one product type, we are now placing successful applicants in such categories on a waiting list to contact if a current stall holder from the same category ceases to participate.
