3) Lessons
learnt from Reuse event at Farmers Market in
May
Mid month
farmers markets are not as popular as markets at the beginning of
the month.
It should
have been made clear at the outset what the rules were with regards
to what should be on the stall (plants could not be sold or given
for donations as they were seen as competing against
another stall holder).
Other
Sustainable Crediton groups could use the Farmers Market in the
future (for free). Also we could use it to advertise Give or
Take event.

Esther to inform other Sustainable Crediton groups about using the
Farmers Market.
