Every month we invite community groups to promote their organisation through a small stall. It's a great way to raise awareness of their activities and can often lead to new leads and avenues for all involved. Here we feature this months stall and showcase stalls from the past markets.
The stall is free and any community organisation/charity can apply to host the stall. Understandably it gets booked up very quickly, so if you are interested get in-touch via the contact page or send us an email to info@kingsnortonfarmersmarket.co.uk

Bournville College
The college has been working along side the Market for the last couple of months, with a view to running the May market. This is a part of a community based business project that year 13 students are undertaking. To promote the college and it's facilities to prospective students they will be manning a stall and chatting to anyone that is interested. So if you want to meet the next Alan Sugar, come along and get involved.

Friends of Historic
Kings Norton
The Friends of Historic Kings Norton had use of the Community Stall on the Market in April. We were able to publicise our existence to a wider audience and sign up 8 new members as well as meeting and greeting several of our existing friends. It tied in nicely as well with our own regular book sale in St Nicolas Place on the same day which always attracts good crowds and gets us frequent donations.
We will be back!

Friends of Kings Norton Nature Reserve
The Friends of Kings Norton Local Nature Reserve (FKNNR) act as an informal pressure group to lobby for environmental improvements in and about the reserve, with a weekly working party on site (the Tuesday WorkOut) to manage the Reserve to increase biodiversity and habitats and to enhance its value for both people and wildlife. We also provide a focal point for local consultations on future developments by the City.
