The Forage Winter Market

One of the North East’s most-loved indie markets is back for a festive weekender. The Forage Winter Market returns to the End Hemmel barn at Rigg & Furrow, Acklington, bringing together more than 50 independent makers, designers and food vendors under one rustic roof.

Expect thoughtful gifts, handcrafted homeware, seasonal treats and design-led treasures – all served with mulled drinks, artisan beer from the on-site taproom and local street food.

Entry is just £1 (kids, carers and dogs go free), with profits supporting Amble Food Bank. Shopping small has never looked, or tasted, this good.

Opening hours: 

Saturday 8th November: 12noon – 6.00pm (Taproom open until 7.00pm)

Sunday 9th November: 12noon – 6.00pm (Taproom open until 7.00pm)
