We have started a new market at Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham, it has been a steady start so far but there is real enthusiasm from the organisers, all based in the local community. I have never seen so many Jewellery and gold shops in one place before. There is a residential community who have been used to supermarket shopping. Hopefully we can provide an alternative to the high food mile, cold stored chemically induced food.We will be attending until the December market and make a decision then whether to continue.
The dates for the markets this year are November 21st, December 5, both Saturdays.

Hi Phil,
Thanks for the post - look forward to seeing you again at the next market,

Thanks for coming to the farmers market. Birmingham City centre market and others have become quite pricey and what I call boutique markets.
Farmers like yourself and others coming along keeps the principle of farmers markets alive. Keep up the good work.
Look forward to seeing you at the next market.
