A Norfolk woman who runs 25 farmers' markets across the county with 275 local businesses involved is launching new evening events.

Donna Mackenzie started Norfolk Farmers Market UK in October 2022 and events are held in various village halls. 

Following its success she is now starting food and craft evenings, working alongside the traders.

Miss Mackenzie said: "There are lots of amazing local food producers and crafters so I wanted to combine the two.

"Often at a craft workshop, you just get tea and cake but this will be a full meal from a top chef."
