Little Bird's artisan market is back in Ripon this weekend.

Little Bird's market is flocking to Ripon this weekend for the start of the autumn season.

Find their artisan traders in Ripon Market Place from 10am on Sunday (22nd September).

Little Bird Artisan Markets take place at venues across North Yorkshire.

Each market offers a very unique shopping experience bringing together a range of artisans and their skills selling handmade items.

Managing Director Jackie Crozier said,

“Both markets will be packed full with everything one can image to find at a outdoor artisan market, from crafts, art and photography, to toys, clothing and accessories. As well as tempting cakes, bakes, fresh breads and cheeses.

These artisan events are not to be missed.

Taylor Jewellery owner Samantha Wood who regularly attends Leyburn Artisan Market has this to say,

Trading with Little Bird has brought many wonderful customers to my business.

Theirs and my customers' support means more than they will ever know."

She added:

“So, thank you to everyone, Jackie and the Little Bird team, my fellow traders, and all established customers as well as those I have yet to meet. See you at the market.”

Sunflower Creations owner, Ellis Gurung who will be trading at Ripon, said:

‘’We’ve been trading for two years and are still learning and growing.

"This year, we started trading with Little Bird Artisan Markets, which has been a fantastic experience.

"We are Sunflower, and every creation is designed by us and handcrafted in Nepal.

"Our mission is to introduce sustainable, handmade products to the UK, and we’re excited to share our unique pieces with the community!’’
