FRESH produce is set to go on sale at a monthly produce market at Burlescombe & Westleigh Community Hall.

The hall is a registered charity and the market, set to run on the fourth Saturday of the month – with the first event on January 25 – will raise money for it.

Organisers hope to offer a full range of fresh goods such as bread and baked items, vegetables, eggs and butchery, and a few selected craft items. Local producers are now being sought to take a table at cost of £4.

Villagers will be able take along items such as a glut of garden produce, preserves, plants, cakes and pies, which will be sold on their behalf on a community table run by the hall. Goods will need to be taken to the hall between 9am and 9.45am.

The kitchen will also be open offering hot and cold drinks and breakfast baps.

A spokesperson for the event said: “We are committed to this being a long-term, regular market and it will be an excellent opportunity for producers to establish a regular local customer base.”

Neither Burlescombe or Westleigh has a village shop. Anyone interested in having a stall should contact Emily Pearson on 07875 723110.
