At the Devon Life Food and Drink Awards 2010, held at Sandy Park, Exeter, on Thursday, 11th November, Cullompton Farmers’ Market (one of three finalists) was voted by its customers as the Best Farmers’ Market of the year, for the second year running. Two of the market’s traders also won awards: Bread of Devon, as the Best Baker/Confectioner, and Sandford Orchards, as runners up for the Best Drinks Producer of the Year. Thank you to all our customers, traders, and team who manage the market. Cullompton Farmers’ Market is going from strength to strength.
