Heaton Moor Producers Market

Author: Heaton Moor Producers Market

  • Market returns Sunday 02 February 2014

    A very happy 2014 to you all and looking forward to a busy & bustling market year to come!

    Heaton Moor Market returns in it’s new monthly slot on Sunday 02 February 2014, 11:00 – 15:00.

    This year, not only will we be in our usual location on the car park of The Kushoom Koly, but we will also have stalls set up along Shaw Road itself.  As such, no vehicles will be permitted along Shaw Road, from Heaton Moor Rd to Derby Range, during the market operating times.  This will allow easier browsing & shopping space for customers to enjoy.

    As well as all our regular, much loved traders – selling everything from Farm-made cheeses, hand made pies, cheesecakes and chilli sauces; to hand made skin care, painted plant pots and jewellery – we will be welcoming some lovely new traders who are very much looking forward to bringing their locally made products to The Heatons.

    We do still have some space for a few more traders who can offer products not already available – if you have your own gazebo and all necessary insurance etc, please contact us at: hello@hmoormarket.co.uk

    We look forward to our first Sunday market of 2014 on 02 February (weather dependent)

    See you then!

     

  • Change To Sunday Market for 2014

    As of 2014, Heaton Moor Market will be changing days.  The market will no longer be on a Saturday, but will instead be held on the 1st Sunday of each month from February.  New time will be 11:00 – 15:00.

    The change is due to the market being permitted to close the top of Shaw Road, from Heaton Moor Road to Derby Range, to allow for greater space and more stalls to be set up on the road.

    All-in-all this means a bigger and better market for all – greater number & variety of stalls, more opportunity for independent, small businesses to sell & promote themselves to the local community, hot food offer from local Shaw Road businesses, and maybe even a touch of entertainment!

    We very much hope that everyone will enjoy the changes to the market and that it can become even more of a monthly event in The Heatons.

    If you would like more information, or are a business interested in a stall at the market, please contact us at: hello@hmoormarket.co.uk

     

  • #HeatonsXmas

    Xmas Festival 2013 Leaflet.inddIt is that time of year again………as the nights draw in, the weather turns colder & bleaker, there is a light on the horizon…… Christmas in The Heatons!

    As many of you will now, the November Heaton Moor Market was the last regular monthly market of 2013 – for the remainder of this year, Heaton Moor Market joins in the festive fun and becomes part of #HeatonXmas

    You will find all our stalls, with all our regular traders, bringing you the change to stock up on fresh, locally produced food for Christmas, and to buy those unique, handmade gifts.

    First event is Friday 29 November on Shaw Road, Heaton Moor. The Market will be set up and trading from 4pm and we will have santa busy in his grotto and all set for visits!  Hot food will be on offer from local Heaton Moor restaurants, and there will be local bands and school choirs to get everyone in Christmas-mode!

    On Saturday 30 November, St Thomas’s Church in Heaton Chapel has a Christmas “sing-along” with a visit from santa and The Rotary Ukelele band. There will also be some craft & gift stalls in the church for a spot of festive shopping at the same time.

    Saturday 07 December sees Heaton Moor Market at The Moor Top – all our stalls will be set up on the car park, next to the Co-op, ready to go from 11am. Santa will be back in his grotto, and there will be the much-enjoyed treasure hunt around the local shops.

    Saturday 14 December sees the last event in Heaton Mersey – on the car park of The Frog & Railway. Activities will revolve around the car park & St John’s Church, with a local school choir competition, carol singing and stalls for that last-minute Xmas shopping!

    Hope to see lots of you at these Christmas events and remember – help support local business & community by making this a Shop Local Xmas!

    Heaton Moor Market was certainly the place to be on Saturday with the wide selection of locally produced food going down a storm……customers almost jumping over each other to nab the last pie!

    Christmas gift ideas were on display – we have such creative traders, offering unique, well made gifts – all items can be ordered directly from the stallholder, so be sure to tweet/email them to guarantee you get the items you’d like at the next market.

    How lucky we are to have such a wonderful selection of locally produced food, gifts & crafts at our Monthly Market and to hear the response of market goers who enjoy our little market and all there is to buy.

    I am continually amazed by the quality & variety of products traders offer each month, and the passion & dedication that they have for their work.

    I love being able to bring these wonderful traders to Heaton Moor and for the local community (and beyond) to be able to enjoy the day and the products on offer.

    Many thanks to all for another wonderful day xx

     

    August 2013 Market

  • #MarketSaturday

    poster jpeg for marketThe first Saturday of the month sure does come around quick, and once again, #MarketSaturday is nearly upon us.

    August is a funny month – the inevitable Holiday season means many of our regular stallholders are away, as are many customers, and usually means a quieter market.  Nonetheless, our market soldiers on……

    Fortunately, we have been able to book in some new traders who will be offering exciting products for those of you enjoying the continued good weather and holidaying in The Heatons (will feel like you’re at a market on the streets of Paris!).

    So, here’s who’s new for the August Market:

    Plus, many of your market favourites will still be with us on Saturday…..

    Pop along, bring a sun hat and a brollie just to cover all options, and be ready to stock up on wonderful local produce………see you there xx

  • NEW – Specialist Markets

    Ale & Food logo

    Heaton Moor Producers Market has been so well supported over the past few years and has become an event that is much looked forward to each month, by customers and traders alike.

    As a result of this, we have been looking at ways in which the market can grow further, but without losing any of it’s appeal or the community feel that it has developed.

    The answer – regular specialist markets.  After much debate & consideration, we have decided to hold additional “festival” markets that would focus on certain products sold by our traders at the monthly market and incorporate some street food & entertainment into this.

    The first is to be an Ale & Food market this coming October- we are looking for local breweries to come along and promote their real ales to the Heatons and sell bottled beer for customers to enjoy at home. We are also looking for local producers to accompany this with items such as pies, tarts, scotch eggs etc

    Other specialist markets in the planning include a coffee & chocolate market (March); a flower & garden market (July/August); and maybe even a market especially for bakers – cakes, biscuits, bread………

    Look out for updates on these specialist events and for news on local restaurants/delis who will be taking part via Twitter and Facebook.

  • What’s On This #MarketSaturday

    It’s almost time for the July Heaton Moor Producers Market and, due to demand for stalls, we have expanded! Thanks to The Blue Cat on Shaw Road, we will have stalls inside, as well as outside on the car park between The Kushoom Koly and Kro Heaton Moor.

    And, it promises to be a busy & bustling day, with glorious July weather from the look of things (hope I haven’t jinxed that now!!).

    Here’s what’s on this #MarketSaturday:

  • Exciting Market Ahead…….

    July Market

    After a break over June, I am am really looking forward to getting back to the market in July – and it promises to be a real cracker!

    This will be our first month with additional stalls being located in The Blue Cat, just a little further down Shaw Road from the main site between The Kushoom Koly and Kro Heaton Moor. With the extra stall space, we will have an amazing 37 stalls on 06 July.  And, this means even more choice of amazing locally produced food and gifts for our market customers.

    New for July, French Macarons by Mum’s Macarons, Brownies by The Brownie Owl and Loose Leaf Teas by A Tea A Day.

    We will also see the return of two good friends of the market who have been very much missed this year – The Greek Kitchen with their popular vine leaves, and the beautiful artwork of Original Tanzania, who not only have original artwork & prints from Tanzania, but also the most beautiful scarves and children’s puzzles, all with their colourful African designs.

    All of these stalls can be found in The Blue Cat.

    We will be welcoming back all our regular stallholders that can be found at Heaton Moor Producers market each month, so get your shopping lists together and we’ll be seeing you on Saturday 06 July!
