With summer finally here, come to Sneinton Marketplace on the 12th June to experience Nottingham's' taste of summer at the Transition Market.
12th June sees the welcome return of the bi-monthly Transition Market at Sneinton Market. The Transition Market stall holders are all local artisans producing bread, jams, cakes, handicrafts and energy(!?) and is a treasure trove of urban resourcefulness and creativity. With Summer underway, this month the market will be celebrating things summer with local tastes and textures.
Beccy Spur, Transition Markets' originator and co-ordinator says " Sneinton Marketplace has long been overlooked, and the Transition Market is helping to make a Nottingham Market for Nottingham people"
So come to the Transition Market on 12th June at Sneinton, have a chat with the stall holders and soak up that sunny atmosphere!
If you would be interested in having a stall at this or future markets, or would like more information please contact Beccy on 07789917429 or

What exactly is transition - from what to what... More info please. Have you considered setting one up in the town formerly known as Long Eaton and now known as Tesco Superstore?

The purpose of the market

Transition Town Initiatives are a grassroots, action model for making the change to a low carbon future. One of the many ways a community can do this is by creating a local economy, something lacking in these globalised times.
The market is a low cost and low risk way for small scale local producers to have an outlet. It can also be used to create links with community groups, a place to create networks and share skills and ideas. The project is born out of a desire to recreate a sense community in a depressing Tesco City that is in danger of losing what remains of it's individuality, I am not saying it's going to save the world, We just want to try and make a small positive change.
