Make It a May to Remember!

May is almost over, but there’s still plenty to enjoy before the month wraps up and the best way to soak it in is right here at the market. 🌿🌞

There’s something special about spending time at the market, the smell of fresh bread, the vibrant colours of seasonal produce, and the friendly faces behind every counter. 💚 When you shop local, you're not just picking up something delicious or beautifully made, you're supporting small businesses and the community that surrounds them. 🛍️✨

Right now, the market is buzzing with life: fresh flavours, handmade treasures, and local vendors who pour their passion into everything they do. 🥬🧁🎨 Every visit is a chance to discover something new, whether it’s your favourite loaf of bread, a go-to lunch, or a one-of-a-kind gift.

Shopping local means choosing community, and every time you visit, you’re helping independent makers and food lovers continue doing what they do best. ❤️

✨ And don’t forget, despite the construction outside, the Market is open and ready to welcome you in with a smile. 💛
