— a note from the field
In June we opened the barn doors for the first time, and you filled it. A full barn, stalls brimming, music drifting out across the fields, children with ice cream, neighbours who arrived as strangers and left as friends. We weren’t sure what would come of it. What came was something tender and true — and one question, asked over and over: when’s the next one?
This is the next one.
On Sunday 2 August we gather again at The Beverley Barn — a converted dairy barn set in the fields of East Yorkshire. The timing is no accident: the first weekend of August falls on Lammas, the old first-harvest festival — high summer, the fields turning gold, the first loaves of the year.
What’s on the day
- Stalls from local growers, makers & healers — things to taste, take home, and learn
- Hands-on workshops & demonstrations to watch and try
- Real slow food and street-food traders
- Live acoustic music
- A kids’ corner and an ice cream van
Coming along
Entry is £5, booked in advance — and your ticket helps keep this small market alive, gathering to gathering. Under-16s come free (book one per child so we know numbers). And because this is a market for everyone, there’s a free pay-what-you-can community ticket for anyone for whom £5 is a barrier — cost should never be the reason someone can’t join us.
Come for an hour or the whole afternoon. Bring someone you love. From field to hearth — see you in the barn.
