Covid-19 Community Markets update
Posted on 1 April 2020
All Community Markets are closed for the time being, but some stallholders are co-operating to set up a mini-outdoor-market. The outdoor markets will be held in Culbokie and North Kessock on Saturday mornings until further notice. Fish, venison, beef and chocolate are currently available.
For anyone attending, please act responsibly:
Keep a 2m separation at all times. Only one customer at a time and do not approach the van/stall until asked to do so.
Payments are by contactless card.
The markets will take place at:
Findon Hall Car Park between 10am and 11am
North Kessock Village Hall Car Park from 11.30am to 12.30pm
The most recent addition to the Black Isle Community Markets started in August 2018. From May 2019 onwards it will be re-locating to bigger premises at the Community Theatre, in the Academy complex. The market is held on the first Saturday of each month, from 10.00 to 12.30.
Those who already enjoy the local food and crafts on offer at the existing Black Isle community markets will need no introduction to this one. For those who haven't tried them, come along, buy great quality local produce, meet the suppliers, have a chat with us about what's going on, meet friends and have a cuppa.

Claire works for Highland Council in their waste department, promoting waste reduction and recycling amongst other things, and is a former editor of Chatterbox.

The email contact address is unchanged.
