HFM’s Business Development Manager, Alex Handford, said, “We are delighted to bring our producers to the fantastic Open Kitchen weekend at Port Solent. We can offer the best in seasonal produce, all locally produced and sourced. We’re looking forward to a great market and hope as many people as possible will come to the market – especially those who’ve never been to a Hampshire Farmers’ Market before.”
