The Urban Yard Fair is Coming

We have a Yard – so do you have the talent?

Do you know Hope Street Yard ? It’s a quirky little yard just off Mill Road on the Romsey Town side of the bridge. This yard is a hidden gem made up of a series of ‘lock ups ‘ and workshops, with its freshly painted coloured doors, the yard is starting to resemble Balamory! Antique and period furniture 1920′s – 1970′s, Ercol, complimented by Vintage clothing, hats and accessories. We also have two bike companies – The Electric Bike Company, offering the speediest and easiest solution to getting around and the Dutch Bike Company – take your kids to school in one of these unique bikes – to bring a real solution to the school run.

So back to the fair – you may have heard of my shop – Urban Larder, http://urbanlarder.co.uk/102/press-coverage/ I opened last Halloween, bringing local food to local people. Food sourced from the surrounding counties, kitchens, farms and orchards. Now we want to expand the idea to include not only food producers but also designer/makers, children’s gifts and toys, jewellery, cards, artists, to create an eclectic mix.

The plan is to run a monthly fair in our gorgeous white marquee which will be in place by the time you arrive – all you have to bring is a table and your ‘wears’– come and help us build the next Camden Market! I will need your help in building this monthly event. Stalls will be at an amazing introductory price of £10 for the day, in return we need you to email, call, tell, family, friends, strangers and your customers to come down and support us on the day. As well as having stalls we will have live music at each event so if any of you are budding musicians or traveling troubadours then let us know we’ll book you in to play.

At the first event Limoncello will be bringing along their mobile pizza oven for delicious on the spot pizzas! This fair has such big potential but it will take time to establish – so people spread the word and let’s get this yard buzzing and make the summer a great one.

This is a great opportunity for you to build up your presence in Mill Road as we head towards the Mill Road Winter Fair(4^th December). Growing in numbers each year, last year, with the road closure, it attracted over 20,000 visitors. Half of the Food Fair is planned to stay in the yard so you will be ahead of the game if already there and who knows we could be having our own summer food festival in 2011.

I have planned to stage the initial event on the 15^th May and from then on, it will be on the first Saturday of each month.

Come and be a part of it – let’s get Romsey on the map!

For more details – please call me Polly on 01223 243021, email me info@urbanlarder.co.uk or come down and see the yard!

Remember the 15^th May – the first Urban Yard Fair !
