Last night was our first ever farmers market here at the museum. The event was a huge success with approximately 750 people attending. Our vendors included everything from freshly cut flowers, home made sausages, fresh locally grown vegetables, locally made chutneys and other delicacies like kale chips, a blacksmith, local coffee vendors, fresh fire oven cooked pizza, fresh fish, artisans, awesome old cars and live music playing nicely in the background. This live music accompanied by the smells of fresh food and flowers surrounded by the historical setting of our museum grounds resulted in the perfect atmosphere for our market.


The event was such a success that many of the vendors sold out of numerous items. Due to this success most if not all of our current vendors have signed up to return next week, or for the entire summer. On top of that numerous other vendors have asked to attend next week's market to see if we can repeat our success. So we encourage everyone to come out next Friday the 18th between 5 and 8pm so we can have an even bigger and better market!
