A new vintage market strives to reduce fast fashion and make shopping a more immersive and personal experience for local businesses.
Forage Vintage Market last took place on Sunday 30th March from 12pm to 5pm and showcased a range of art, trinkets, jewellery and clothing from local creatives, alongside live music DJ’s.
Owner, Meg Washington, has sold vintage items for seven years and now wants the public to meet the faces behind the business to learn their stories.
After closing her shop last August, this reoccurring event continues to help locals find preloved crafts ‘you’ll never find again’ from good quality fabrics in attempts to lure people away from unethical high street stores.
Small business owners Chloe Nightingale and Alex Savannah sold at the market last Sunday and praised its buzzing community feel.
The vintage market will return again on Sunday 27th April.
