Comber Farmer’s Market February News
After the January break, we are looking forward to welcoming everyone back to the next Comber Farmers’ Market on Thursday 4 February 2016, St Mary’s Parish Church Car Park, 9.00am – 1.30pm.
Our plant and flower traders (Trainview Farm, Uncommon Garden Company and Ivan McCutcheon) will be taking a break until March or April as they have no plants or flowers growing at this time of year. However, we have a full house on Thursday with 24 traders attending. We are pleased to welcome:
• Mark Douglas, the Krazi Baker from Dromore who was a big hit at our Christmas market with his fabulous soda farls, potato bread and award winning apple cakes
• Kenny Gracey from Forthill Farm in Tandragee selling free range beef and pork from traditional breeds
• Paul Hamilton, a local farmer from Comber who will be selling vegetables and fruit
• Gary Lecky of the Fabulous Food Factory. Gary has an outside hot food catering business and is based in Lisburn. He will not be selling his hot foods and drink at our market but is diversifying into food production and will be bringing along a range of pre-packed, savoury ready meals; pates; smoked chicken, duck and salmon; homemade salamis and chorizo sausage; and biltong and beef jerky.
Weather
According to the BBC weather forecast, it is to be cloudy and dry on Thursday morning, temperatures around 10C and wind speed of 16 mph.
