We're looking for passionate gardeners and growers who would like to turn their passion into a little, local business.


The West Norwood Feast is a new 'people-powered' street market that will take place on the first Sunday of every month from Sunday 3rd April. It's been created by the people who live here along with Space Makers Agency - the social enterprise behind the Brixton Village project.


This market won't just be about exchanging goods for cash, but will also be a place to meet new people, learn new skills and to be entertained. So among our stallholders will be people who sell wonderful things, conduct demonstrations, offer advice and hold workshops. And the whole experience will be enriched with street entertainment and music.


This is why we think the market offers a lovely opportunity for local people to turn their passions into something exciting for the market - there are so many ways to get involved. We're looking for stallholders for all four of our market hubs: Gardeners' Corner, Retro Village, the Food Fair and the Artisans' Market. And we think the gardening market in particular presents exciting opportunities for local people who might have interesting ideas for stalls. Especially since West Norwood has a high number of owner-occupiers with gardens, but very little to cater for them - what could you do?


For example:


- Do you have any spare seeds or plants that you could sell or swap?

- Would you like to create a gardening exchange?

- Do you have lots of gardener friends who might group up with you to create a stall?

- Do you already have a gardening business or stall that you'd like to bring to the market?

- Do you grow vegetables that you'd like to sell?

- Do you make things for the garden?

- Do you have gardening expertise that you'd like to share?


Stalls cost just ?30 for the day, including delivery and all the equipment you'll need.


If you're excited by this opportunity, please contact the local gardening volunteer team at [email protected].


You can find out more about the market at www.westnorwoodfeast.com, at our Facebook page or Twitter feed.

    • Calling All Private Chefs – We’re Looking for You! We’re currently looking for talented private chefs in and around East Dulwich (and across London) for a number of exciting upcoming bookings and events. If you’re a chef, or know someone who is, we’d love to hear from you. Please drop your name, contact info, and a quick intro below or message directly. Thanks! Anthony Bird & Co Events
    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
