Friday 11 April Brede Farmers Market is from 10am to 12 noon in Brede Village Hall and Car Park. On the latter you may find the Fish Stall and the Frenchman with his Pâté and selection of Cheeses. The plant man has not been around lately but with the weather warming up and plants on the move maybe he will be back soon.
Not always, but generally there are many stalls inside selling a plethora of local goods. Fruit, vegetables, meat, cakes, pastries, biscuits, jams, marmalades, needle crafted items, knitted items and Avon cosmetics. Therefore it is very diverse and well worth a visit ; where you may have refreshments served by our volunteers Judy and Vivien; all money taken goes to a charity of the volunteers choosing. Last month it was £300 to The Seaview project. Perhaps then, while a way the time talking to your family or friends, often there are local and Rother District Councillors and occasionally the Community Police call in, so that you can talk them too.
