The wonderful sweet offerings come to you from Horsham Gingerbread, Just Brownies, Leading Lady Cakes, Pure Chocolate Truffles, Mummy Makes Fudge and Tukris cakes.

The store cupboard will not be neglected as this is the weekend to stock up on Sussex Gold oils, dips and mayonnaises, Linseed Farm oils, Le Mesurier and Arnold’s range of condiments or Sussex Faire chutneys and jams.

For more specialist foods, head for gluten-free from Pinch of This and Verygoodfood. For sheep’s milk and ice cream, head to Top Paddock Dairy or Red’s Light Bites for exotic meat and pastries. Bee’s Cosmetics will have their full natural range on display and don’t leave out your four-legged friend - do take them along to the lovely Dominique at Little Pet Biscuit.

In between all of this, there will be no shortage of re-fuelling opportunities. With two local breweries, Hepworths and Firebird in attendance together with the very jolly boys from Old Rudgwick Cider Society as well as Wobblegate juice and cider and the award-winning girls from the famous Brighton Gin, it’s bound to be cheery.

Look out also for the local wine bar on the market.
