A CALL FOR STALL HOLDERS

The Natural World Centre will be hosting their annual Christmas Market this year on Sunday 14th December from 10am to 4pm.

Planning is well underway and event organisers are calling for their last few stalls to be filled! Last year’s Christmas Market saw over 1,000 visitors with a variety of stalls for the public to see including arts & crafts, seasonal treats plus many others!

Please not that food cannot be consumed on the premises but can be sold.

If you are interested in having a stand at this year’s Christmas Market, please contact Donna Sutton on 01522 870273 or email eventsofficer@1life.co.uk for further information.

NEW SELECT LINCOLNSHIRE FOR FOOD COLUMN

The Lincolnshire newspaper group Target asked Select Lincolnshire to write a regular monthly column and here is the first one!

The purpose of our first article was the raise the profile of Lincolnshire produce and to celebrate great seasonal food. This month we showcased Redhill Farm Free Range Pork Pies, which were served at this summers Lord's Cricket Ground as they were hand selected by Jamie Oliver's event catering company.

We also showcased a new member, Alfred Enderby for all the smoked fish lovers out there. Buying every piece of fish from the auction market at Grimsby's fish dock, and then they are slowly smoked overnight in the 100 year old traditional brick built smoke house. It's smoke haddock and cod was also awarded the PGI European protected status.

Finally, Cote Hill Cheese deserved a mention after scooping gold at this year's British Cheese Awards for their latest offering Cote Hill Lindum. The new entry beat 68 other entrants from all over the UK to win 'Best New Cheese'.

Do you have any suggestions as to what our next column should focus on? Who do you think deserves a mention? Do you want a mention?
