A foot tapping Farmers’ Market

Sorry to bore you but - yet again - another dry day for Stone’s Farmers’ Market. The record still stands!

Forty one stallholders and several thousand people in town are testament to our proud claim that Stone now has the best Farmers’Market in Staffordshire. Compared to 23 stalls at Stafford last month Stone was really buzzing today! The Food and Drink Festival working group secured the attendance of Murphy’s Marbles to play outside The Lounge throughout the day and the crowds were still tapping their feet at five o’clock when we had to ask them to go home! The marquee company wanted to take the stall down and finish for the day!

Another successful day for the town. As one shopkeeper said to me as I left tonight  ” I wish we could have a Farmers’ Market every Saturday”!
