Welcome to South Yorkshire Country Markets

LATE SUMMER EARLY AUTUMN

[See the News Section for details about the Doncaster Temporary Closure]

After a slow start to summer warmth, August has proved to be more than a half decent month and summer warmth is still with us albeit accompanied by some dull and rainy days mixed in. Many producers have now returned from holiday and early autumn will soon be in prospect. Some late summer garden produce and plants will continue to be available for a while but soon thoughts will turn and focus on baking more seasonal products as days grow shorter.

Birthdays and other celebrations are year round and our Markets can provide a variety of hand crafted and hand made original gift ideas amongst a wide range of craft products which you can then complement with an appropriate and unique card.

WE ARE CHANGING......AND IN SOME CASES HAVE ALREADY CHANGED!

Over the next few months you may notice some changes in our branding as we adopt the new Country Markets branding. We think it more clearly says what we do.

You will also see on our food labels Allergy Advice in line with the latest labelling regulations which apply from December 2014. If you still have any doubts please ask.
