Crediton
Farmers Market
www.creditonfarmersmarket.com/
Saturday 7th June 2008 - Crediton Farmers Market
Market Square Crediton Devon EX17
10 am - 1 pm
Held on the first
Saturday of every month between 10 am and 1 pm, Crediton Farmers'
Market takes place on the new Market Square in
Crediton, which was designed and built with the market in mind.
With a wide range of
organic and conventional produce available, including meat, fish,
seasonal fruit and vegetables, dairy products, cakes,
plants, apple juice, cider,
pottery, cards and woven baskets, and with
virtually all stallholders living less than 5
miles from the market, Crediton has one of the
most local farmers' markets in the county.
Although
we do have to occasionally look further afield in order to keep the
market as fresh and interesting as possible, produce does not travel
more than around 30 miles at most, and the result is one of the finest
farmer's markets in the county, a fact recognised by the readers
of Devon Life magazine who recently voted Crediton Farmers' Market Best
Market of the Year for the second time in three years.

Devon English Wine Week
Yearlstone
Vineyard
www.devonwineweek.co.uk/
Saturday
24th May
to Sunday 1st June 2008 - Devon English
Wine Week
Devon now has close to 30
vineyards, many planted in the last few years as the English wine boom
has gathered pace. It's estimated Devon wines have already captured 1%
of the wine market in their home region. The Exeter area is a particular
hotspot - many vineyards are as yet too new to take part in the Wine
Week, but Yearlstone, Pebblebed, Manstree, Sharpham, Kenton, Old
Walls, Willhayne and Summermoor vineyards have joined
together to promote their regional wines and to celebrate Devon's local
food and wine culture, in what's believed to be the biggest regional
celebration of English
Wine Week.
Yearlstone Vineyard near
Bickleigh has just been named Fastest Improving Vineyard in England
in the presitigious Wine Report 2008. Sharpham Vineyard near Totnes is
now selling in excess of 100,000 bottles a year. Kenton Vineyard
near Exeter sold out its first vintage rapidly and is producing some
excellent English reds. Pebblebed Vineyard near Topsham won a Gold
Medal with its first rosé at the English & Welsh Wine of the
Year competition. Old Walls, Manstree and others are also making waves
in the English wine world.
Over the week, there will
be something taking place every single day, at the vineyards and
participating outlets. A host of different activities, both informative
and entertaining, are being laid on for your enjoyment, giving a wide
range of opportunities to get to know these many award-winning wines
better, and really see just how versatile and delicious they are.
For example, following the 2007 Challenge where Devon wines took on the
best from New Zealand, the main event of this year's Devon Wine Week
will be "Devon's Sparkling Wines vs Champagne" on Wednesday
28th May hosted by Master of Wine Alastair Peecles at the Devon Wine
School in Cheriton Fitzpaine, judged to professional standards by some
of the top names in the profession.

Farmers' markets give
food producers and farmers the opportunity to sell their produce
directly to the public. Farmers markets and community supported
agricultural projects are growing in number and popularity across the
country. Buying directly helps provide social, economic and
environmental benefits for everyone, providing a local social event,
valuable income for smaller producers, and reducing food miles.
Wellington is fortunate to have both a monthly farmers' market and the
more regular Wellington Market. Wellington Market is open
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The contact number for
Wellington Market is 01952 242019

Learning
Disability Week

Sunday 15th to
Saturday 21st June 2008 - Learning
Disability Week
Learning Disability Week
is a national awareness week run by Mencap every year. It is a chance to
raise awareness about the issues that are important to people with a
learning disability and their families and carers.
This year’s learning
disability week is 15th to 21st June 2008. It will be
around employment.
Many people complain
about the routine of working 9-5, but many people with a learning
disability just want the opportunity to work.
Mencap’s 9-5
campaign will be asking employees to look around and ask why
there are no people with learning disability working with them.
Mencap will be raising
awareness of the problem and asking employers to take on people with a
learning disability.
