We look forward to hearing from you

What to bring

  • Your products. In some way they need to meet the sustainability criteria: minimizing waste and/or reducing the drain on the environment. Upcycled, recycled, reused;  recyclable, reusable, up-cycled? 
  • Your own table/s and a chair
  • Sense of humour. Yes sometimes it does get quiet, but we all still have fun.
  • Perseverance, We have learned that the more often you have a stall at a market the more customers you will get over time - people remember you and will come back specifically to see you

what not to bring

  • Any food items to sell that would compete with the food being sold at the Twilight Cafe. 
  • Plastic packaging - if you need paper bags please let us know and we can provide you with some - we are endeavoring to be a plastic free market (we do understand that some vulnerable stock may need to be in plastic - perhaps have some display items in plastic and the rest held separate for sales without plastic)

jumble markets

Our Declutter, Destash and Jumble Markets are popular and held several times a year. You can have either your crafty stuff or jumble/destash - or both - or even book another table to have more. It's a good opportunity to have a clean out - not just crafty stuff - kitchen, books, clothes etc are all good items to bring and a lot sells if reasonably priced.
