The Village Market

The Village Market is back for 2025 with additional stalls, a great Repair Room line-up and new for this year, themed monthly events. Find us on the last Saturday of each month between April and November from 9.30-11.30 am at the Conygre Hall & field. Next dates are 26th July, 30th Aug, 27th Sep, 25th Oct & 29th November (Indoor Festive Market).

Stalls

This year there will be around 18 regular stalls each month for all your delicious local food basics, from bread and cheese to cakes and preserves and from savouries and meat to plants and vintage wares. In addition we will have guest stalls, with us for a few months of the year, including Fillerup (Radstock refill shop), Mark Ricks woodworking, Limeburnhill Biodynamic wine and Palette & Pasture ice cream.

The stalls are shown below and the link at the bottom takes you to a full list with links to producer websites if you’d like to learn more.

Repair Room

Sewing repairs will be available in the Repair Room each month. Our wonderful volunteer sewer can fix your tears, holes and broken zips for a small donation. This year you can also bring your bike along for a health check and some basic maintenance. Our Bike Whisperer will be with us every month apart from July. Again, a donation towards your bike repairs is appreciated. Tool sharpening will also be available. The Sharpening Service, based in Westfield, will be bringing their mobile van most months. You can get all your blunt garden tools, kitchen knives and scissors sharpened up again.
