A NEW monthly artisan market is coming to Rugby.
The market, which will feature food and handmade crafts, will launch at Dollman Farm in Houlton on Saturday April 19.
Organised by the Houlton Events Team alongside market operator CJ’s Events and supported by master developer Urban&Civic, the market will return on the third Saturday of every month.
The Easter weekend in Houlton will also feature the launch of a new mobile phone app for Houlton created by Urban&Civic, which will provide general information on living in Houlton, as well as local offers and events.
It contains a What’s On guide, information on resident groups, as well as the latest news for the area. Houlton residents can find the app here.
An Easter scavenger hunt, which ties in with the new app, is also taking place in Houlton until April 18.
Elly Hemus, Community Development Lead at Urban&Civic said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming the addition of a monthly artisan market, providing some great stalls – many of which are local businesses – that people can browse and look forward to each month.
“We’re always looking at ways to add value for the people living in our Houlton community, which is why we’re launching our dedicated app to provide them with all the information they need on their phone, device or computer.
“Our Easter scavenger hunt is always a popular one, and we’re excited to do it a bit differently this year to give people a chance to check out the new app and familiarise themselves with it – along with a bit of family fun over the Easter holidays.”
