Princes Risborough Farmers Markets are back!

1st April

Princes Risborough Farmers Markets are back with confirmed dates of Saturday 1st April, Saturday 3rd June, Saturday 23rd September, and Saturday 28th October 2023.

A foodies delight, Princes Risborough Farmers Markets showcase a wonderful array of produce that is lovingly made by friendly producers right here in the Chilterns, and where possible within a 40-mile radius of Princes Risborough.

A mixture of fan-favourites and new vendors will pitch at the upcoming market on Saturday 1st April, selling a wide array of local goodies inclusive of gin, honey, teas, sparkling wines, olives, pies, home-produced and locally sourced meats, as well as savoury and sweet treats. Hot takeaway food will also be available, with a delicious lineup of handmade burgers, sourdough toasties, and gluten free pasta and pancakes.

Little ones are bound to be entertained by Basil and Crews Educational Mobile Farm. Basil the Shetland Pony and his crew of fluffy and furry friends will be at King George V Park from 09:00-14:00 helping all ages gain confidence at their own speed, learning how to safely interact with the present farm animals. It will be a lovely opportunity for all to learn more about and feed these gorgeous animals. First Steps Pre-School will also be running a themed crafts stall throughout the event.

The Black Dog Band will be returning! Playing between 10:00-12:00, attendees are invited to sit back and soak up the atmosphere as they play.

In partnership with the North West Chilterns Community Board and Risborough Environmental Group, Princes Risborough Town Council will be distributing free packets of wildflower seeds at the Farmers Market as part of the Bee Squared project. They are free to all and are given so that you can plant your own 1-metre square of native wildflowers in your garden or in pots to help biodiversity in and around our gardens.

Families attending will also be able to collect an entry form for Princes Risborough Town Council’s Easter trail which launches on High Street, Princes Risborough, on Saturday 1st April from 10:00.

This event is free of charge to attend and will be held at King George V Park on Wellington Avenue in Princes Risborough. Starting bright and early at 09:00, the event will span for five hours, finishing at 14:00.

Hello @followers Welcome to the July 2024 Issue of Look Local Magazine. I want to dedicate this months letter to three NEW local businesses that I have been made aware of. First up we have Beauty at No.11 which is a sustainable beauty studio that has opened in Watlington. Owned by Watlington resident, 23-year-old Georgina Eales, the salon offers the full range of treatments that customers would expect to find in larger salons, but with the emphasis very much on sustainable, hypo-allergenic products. Georgina, who learned her craft with respected beauty industry leaders Clinique and Charlotte Tilbury, has clear ideas about how to set her business apart from others. She is the only beauty studio within a 25-mile radius to offer Hona, a pioneer of hypo-allergenic nail products. Other innovative services include Elim, a medical grade pedicure treatment, which uses state of the art ingredients to remove hard skin from the feet. You can find our more about Beauty at No.11 on their website www.booksolo.co/beautyatno11. The next business I want to give a shout out to is a small, sustainability-led retail business called Comhla (pronounced - coh-la), which means ‘together’. Founded by Lucie Harrild, the brand aims to help customers step away from fast fashion by enjoying a variety of brands and services using their mantra: Buy Well. Mend. Extend. Lucie was a sustainability professional for the last 20 years and then in 2022 ventured into the world of Comhla, in 2023 she opened a small boutique in Long Crendon to showcase the concept she is building online into a reality for customers. For more information about the business or to shop, visit them in person at Manor Stables, Long Crendon, HP18 9FF or head to their online shop www.comhla.co.uk. With the online world in mind, and with summer well and truly upon us now, this leads nicely onto the third new business I wanted to bring to your attention to. Cool Heat Solution specialise in cooling, heating and outdoor living essentials for your home and garden. Turn to page 12-13 for their Top Picks of the perfect products to transform your outdoor space and embrace alfresco living! Or head straight to their website, www.coolheatsolution.co.uk, to shop their extensive collection of top quality products from the UKs best loved brands. Until next month, enjoy reading...Love Emma xREAD ONLINE VERSION HERE: https://look-localmagazine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/JUL24_Issue139_28pg_WEB.pdf ... See MoreSee Less
