PS. as mr rubsnif says, for those who don't feel comfortable at the market there is another way of doing it - www.themarketbarrow.com. Not all of the same producers, but a good crossover.
Well actually I do feel bad that I didn't manage the gate. There should have been someone there all the time, because even with plenty of stalls if the in/out thing is done properly there's no need for any concern (in my opinion) though it might mea…
personally I like the Danish lady Sara's even over Bread By Bike's but both are really nice - and just had one from bigjo which is also great! It's different though, i thought it almost had more of a croissant texture?
As far as I know it's part of a very upmarket, smallish but growing empire! The restaurant and bakery Jolene is close to us in Newington green , it's all about sustainable farming, heritage grains etc. I once had a pain au raisin which was nice. The…
I heard that the use of abbreviations ("abbreves") was accepted in the case of busy people who didn't have time to waste in writing idle prattle on internet forums
funnily enough stroud green was one of only a few London farmers markets to close at all, almost all the others being street markets closed by the councils. I suppose it's because the farmers are selling "essential" items ie food. To shop in a large…
Arkady that cobblers wasn't supposed to be open - but they were there sorting out some things when I came and did the keys on the spot, very lucky. Thanks! Have their number now and I think they'd come down to do a job for anyone so just ask if you …

yep they obviously do have hop flavours but those are more subtle than lots of craft beer...amazing flavour though from the malts and the fermentation itself
also we'd love some more entertainment (live music, storytelling workshops, facepainting and the like) for which a little bit of money and a lot of food will be gladly paid
Thanks to everybody who came: Martin was very happy!
Of course what he brings is entirely governed by the shipping forecast and various other water-related gods, but he's hoping to be able to bring a greater quantity and variety in future.
When th…
Also, to Woodpecker: thank you!! That's exactly what I think. Of course these sorts of events are "good food" markets rather than old-school street markets, so we really have to compare like-for-like when thinking about prices.
Bread by bike for ex…
Miss Annie you're absolutely right about social media AND signs. I've neglected both for ages, just gearing up to have another push at it as it really does make a difference doesn't it...
Trainspotter: sad about that cheese stall and the fish. It's…
