  • NEWSLETTER 1

    Welcome to Heaton Moor

    Market Newsletter

    NEXT MARKET OCTOBER 5th 10.30 – 2.30pm on Shaw rd SK4 4AG

    Welcome to our 1st ever Newsletter! We will be posting our Newsletter monthly on social media but if you would like an email version each month, drop a line to heatonmoormarkets@gmail.com

    The market was established in March 2010, I’m sure many of you remember it. We were 8 stalls on what was the Kushoom Koly carpark, it slowly grew and we took over the upstairs of what was the Kro Bar’s ‘Upper Room’ for crafts,  with the food traders remaining in the carpark. It was good, Amanda Fourie built it from nothing, Stockport Council got behind us, the market was innovative at the time – you wouldn’t believe it now, there are so many markets! Amanda and I were briefly the poster girls of the Stockport area market scene and Amanda was invited to talk to all sorts of people within the Council.

    We got too big for our boots. We knew we wanted to bring the market all completely outside. However, we were too many for the Kush carpark. We were trading on the 1st Saturday of the month at this point and we needed more room. The Council backed our application to go onto Shaw rd with enthusiasm, we just needed the agreement of the businesses that would be affected. All the businesses were 100% behind us until we went into the Fly Fishing Shop… remember that one? The response was absolutely not. His customers would not walk the 100m needed if there was a market on. His customers were of a certain demographic and age. There was absolutely no way he would endorse us. We had no idea anglers were quite so unfit😊

    Consequently we moved to Sunday (anglers apparently don’t shop on Sundays – I guess they were all fishing?) Being married to an angler, I personally found this episode amusing and frustrating in equal measure….

    So, there we are, the 1st Sunday in every month, except January. It’s all thanks to the Fly Fishing Shop. The shop isn’t even there anymore!

    New Faces

    Hello everyone, I’m Anna, the owner of Gonks Ghouls & Ghosts Candles.

    It all started with an invitation to a Halloween party. Not wanting to take food or alcohol, I had the bright idea of taking spooky candles. Then it was cute Gonk candles for Christmas gifts, and that was me hooked. I loved everything about making candles, and a year later (when the house was full) a business was born. But why Gonks, Ghouls and Ghosts? All I can say is it all started with Skulls and Pumpkins and Gonks and just went from there…

    I had been told about Heaton Moor Market and was lucky enough to be invited to join the market in August. I am very excited about being invited back and helping you chose the right candle for your Halloween.

    Please check out my website www.gonksghoulsghosts.com to order direct to your door or collection at the market.

      Most of my friends and acquaintances know of my jam / chutney making activities and so will offer me any spare fruit from their gardens – which I am very grateful for as it helps me extend my range of varieties and stock levels throughout the year.

      This year the early spring and good summer has meant most fruits have given a bumper crop. So instead of the usual carrier bags, the spare fruit has been arriving in bucketfuls!

      Over the last couple of months or so I have been given :

      10 lb blackcurrants
      2 lb redcurrants

      40 lb plums

      35 lb apples

      62 lb damsons

       This is all on top of the rhubarb, redcurrants, blackcurrants, gooseberries, damsons and apples I have picked from my own garden!

       My freezer is now full to overflowing and I am “on the make” every spare moment I get.

      In August I have made:

      10 Jars of Lemon Curd

      55 Jars of Chutney

      75 Jars of Jam

      70 Jars of Marmalade

      18 Jars of Jelly

      Total 228 jars!!!!

    • Shop Local this Christmas

      It’s been a wonderful year for Heaton Moor Market – back in February, we closed the top half of Shaw Road to traffic on market day for the first time, enabling more amazing traders to join us and make the market safer for customers – nice to be able to wander around a larger area without the worry of those cars speeding down the road!
      Local support has grown & grown, and it has been just great to see so many people enjoying the market, the products on offer and chatting with traders.

      The aim behind the market has been to provide a place for small, independent businesses to be able to sell directly to the public, to encourage more people to the Heatons to see all the wonderful shops, bars & restaurants we have, and importantly, to promote the shop local message.

      As it is coming to the end of the year and the last market for 2014 is approaching on Sunday 07 December, we would like to encourage everyone to continue to support local businesses by shopping and dining local this Christmas – let’s keep it in The Heatons 😉

      Gifts & Food

      A few ideas for Christmas gift & food shopping:

      • Pokusevski’s – great place to buy fresh cheeses, pies, olives, cured meats and more……also perfect for those gift hampers
      • Eternal Envy Boutique – all your fashion needs this festival season, great place for gift shopping too
      • Back’s – stockists of real ales, wine and all sorts of foodie loveliness for Christmas
      • Blagg’s – looking for kitchen or garden-inspired gifts, be sure to see what’s available here
