Traders we are aware of who will not be at the market tomorrow, The Clothing Stall.
Mario's Kitchen has moved on to other exciting new opportunities so won't be a regular trader at the market, however we do hope to see him for special events.
We understand how important a yummy and consistent food offering is. We are working diligently to bring you new and tasty options, while carefully seeking out traders who are the right fit for our market and will complement the wonderful community we have here.
