VILLAGE MARKET ENTREPRENEURS ARE BAKING, PRICING AND PANICKING

Stall holders are stringing beads, making jams, baking, pricing, printing and panicking, while holding thumbs for good weather at the second Storms River Village Market, which will be held tomorrow, Saturday, November 8.

In view of the long stretch of rainy weather behind us, the weather should be as lovely as it is today, however, so we are looking forward to seeing you there.

makes products ranging from key holders
to wall clocks from indigenous woods - all
available at tomorrow's market.

A festive atmosphere reigned at last month's market and visitors commented on how good it was to socialize and catch up with each other.

The "Goods available at the Village Market" page on this blog features some of the products that are for sale.

There will be two markets in December, as a special Christmas market will be held on December 20.

It might be a good idea to keep Christmas shopping in mind this Saturday, as you could put in orders for goods that you would like to buy for Christmas and collect them on December 20.


Some new stall holders will join us tomorrow, making the market an even better place to meet friends and greet old neighbours. The Bistro @ Bitou and the Bitou Art Gallery next door will be adding to the mix of entertainment available to market visitors.

SPECIALS at THE BISTRO:
Tea R10
Coffee R13
Breakfast Burger R40, including the latest addition to the menu - the Vegan Burger (which I had today. Highly recommended!)

BITOU ART GALLERY:
View and desire art by local artists Johan Brink, Elzette Bester, Marion Brink, Susan Kemp and Jennifer Angoh.

VENUE:
The market is at the first premises on the left as you enter the village, next to Bitou Art Gallery and the Bistro @ Bitou.

INFORMATION:  Call Elzette Bester at 084 780 0009.
