What a day!🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈
Redruth Pride was amazing. Such a well organised, fun, inclusive and family friendly event. Having Pride and Murdoch celebrations on the same day made for a fabulous community event accross the whole town.
The parade was wonderful, great music, sunshine and a fun vibe. Looking forward to next year already.♥️💜💙🧡❤️

Great piece by Cornwall Live about Molly and Bees off.🐝🐝🐝

Check out Mayo's Makers website for a discount code and grab yourself a bargain. They have been impacted, like so many others, by the Cornwall show being cancelled today. Support them if you can.

We are home safe and dry from the RCS and all our stock is safe unlike others around the site today. Unfortunately due to the Royal Cornwall show cancelling due to the weather Saturday is normally our busiest day for trading so we have added a discount code to our website which is a very rare thing for us to do. Please go and have a look and grab a bargain, also helping a small business out.

For anyone who should have been trading today at Royal Cornwall Show there are some spaces available at Illogan Food & Craft Market tomorrow.

📢 **Attention traders affected by the Royal Cornwall Show cancellation**

We know how much hard work, preparation, and investment goes into getting ready for an event of this size, so we're incredibly sorry to hear about today's cancellation.

If you have stock ready to sell and are looking for an opportunity to trade this weekend, we'd love to help if we can.

We have a few spaces available tomorrow (**7th June**) at the **Illogan Food & Craft Market**. We can accommodate a couple of traders indoors, and we have plenty of room outside for gazebos.

If you'd like to join us, please get in touch as soon as possible. We'd be delighted to support fellow traders and help you turn a difficult situation into a positive trading day.
