Community Wise Village Market

Community Wise is hosting its Village Market on Saturday 28 November, part of the regular run it holds in Eastbourne's Old Town. It's a monthly thing, falling on the last Saturday of every month except August and December, so it's a steady fixture on the local calendar rather than a one-off.

The market brings together local food producers, homemade food, crafts and giftware, and it's run by the charity Community Wise. It sits alongside the organisation's charity shop, Wise Buys, so you can browse the stalls and the shop in one go. The mix of fresh produce, home-baked goods and handmade gifts makes it a decent spot for picking up something for yourself or a bit of early Christmas shopping, especially with the homemade side of things.

It's a small monthly hub for local produce and handmade goods, and because it's a regular, it's easy to build into a routine. The next one is on Saturday 28 November at Community Wise, 66 Ocklynge Road, Old Town, Eastbourne, BN21 1PY, running from 10:00am to 12:30pm.
