Winter is Here

How are you London? Hopefully you are enjoying the tidbits of sunshine scattered through these snowy and ice cold days. This weekend Saturday February 2nd, come warm up your soul with some live music. We will have some chairs set up, so make sure to grab a coffee or hot chocolate before heading upstairs to the Mezzanine to watch the music. A big thank you to everyone who came and donated items last week for 519 pursuit. They were able to provide many people living on the streets with warm items to get them through this cold spell. Farmers' markets are all about building community and connections with people and we did just that!

What's in your Kitchen?

Valentine’s Day is on the horizon so we are looking to get a head start on the rush for a perfect evening.

If you’re evening plans include cooking a meal for someone, try using our new instagram hashtag #cgmarketcooks to be featured. We want to see all the awesome ways you are using local food in your kitchen!

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, Da Costa, one of our beloved artisan vendors will be at the market this week only. Her handcrafted jewelry, made for both men and woman is a London favourite. If you need any advice Da Costa will be there to help you choose the perfect gift. We love having her energy at market in the summer and are looking forward to a winter reunion!
