Kew Village Market Stall
On Sunday 3rd November we’ll be again selling Kew Village Market – Taste the Music, a brilliant compilation CD of 12 great tracks from favourite bands who’ve starred in our sunshine-yellow music marquee. The perfect thank-you gift, it costs just £6 and, as everyone involved has given their time and talents for free, all the profits go to local charities. We’ll also have the Kew Village Market Cookbook and the excellent digest of local history The Story of Kew and stylish KVM tote bags.
What's on 3rd November 2019
- This month’s charity stall will be Skylarks (previously named ‘me too & co’) that provides activities & therapies for children with disabilities and additional needs.
MEAT & FISH
At John and Georgina Emerson’s farm in Normandy, near Guildford, the beef is grass-fed and allowed to graze all year round; their chicken and ducks are all free-range and dry-plucked; and the free-range pork is mostly from saddlebacks. They’ll also be bringing a variety of different flavoured sausages and free-range duck and hen eggs to the market and cooking hot bacon, sausage and pulled pork rolls. www.huntshillfarm.com
Oven-ready seasonal game & venison www.hampshiregame.co.uk
Jamie Walker is based near Chesil Beach and most of the fish he sells at Sunday’s market will have been caught on the Dorset or Devon coast on Friday. What he sells depends on what the boats bring in, so his stall will have what’s in season from a range including bass, bream, monkfish, lemon sole, mullet, plaice, turbot, brill, lemon or dover sole, oysters and lobster, as well as rope-grown mussels and dived scallops. He’s also likely to bring whole cooked crab, home-made crab soup and fishcakes. Most of his fish will already be gutted and scaled, but any other preparation can be done at the market. www.portlandscallopcompany.com

We’re delighted to welcome Kew resident Rob Hilton with his delicious traditionally hand-cured Charcuterie meats – bresaola, pancetta, coppa and lomo – delicately infused with winter flavours of juniper, rosemary and fennel. A perfect addition to your weekend feasts and also to enjoy in a cone, street food style, as you shop.
Homi Jennings (of regular jewellery stall Gallery 66) is also a herbalist and has now launched a new venture selling unusual blends of herbal teas to promote health and wellbeing. She also sells special silk gift pouches of Iranian saffron.
At John and Georgina Emerson’s farm in Normandy, near Guildford, the beef is grass-fed and allowed to graze all year round; their chicken and ducks are all free-range and dry-plucked; and the free-range pork is mostly from saddlebacks. They’ll also be bringing a variety of different flavoured sausages and free-range duck and hen eggs to the market and cooking hot bacon, sausage and pulled pork rolls.
I am a French chef who moved to Richmond from my home town of Lyon – the gastronomic capital of France! I have brought my business of making authentic, traditional sweet and savoury French crepes to Kew Village Market. I have a wonderful selection of fillings and like to change my menu to make sure my customers always have something new to taste and enjoy.
Our speciality is Petit Fours, small treats to brighten everyone’s day! Hand-finished cakes with a perfect balance of flavours and a personal touch will make any event memorable!
Twickenham-based Laura Bossetti will be selling her delicious oven-ready fresh pasta dishes, such as lasagne both bolognaise and vegetarian , gnocchi alla romana and crespelle, as well as Italian sauces and biscuits.

Christian Barrington has been taking his produce to market for over five years, and in that time his pies, quiches, pasties and sausage rolls have won many awards including Best Taste and Best Product, thanks to his great-quality free-range and/or organic ingredients, all locally sourced.
Originally from Colombia and now an experienced chef loving living in London, Mulata brings culinary excellence to the recipes she was brought up on as a child, such as Arepas and Empañadas, offering delicious new street food experiences!
Established in 1979, Nut Knowle Farm makes traditional hand-made hard and soft goat milk cheeses, including Martlet Gold, Millefleur, Aspire, Mount Caburn and their latest, Sussex Squire, which are all much appreciated. From the June market they’ll also be selling fresh goat and kid meat – a must for lovers of Jamaican goat curry!
Here you’ll find a feast of locally baked Hungarian treats – five different types of strudel, savoury and sweet, cakes, biscuits and scones, pastries and traditional breads.
Chris and Lesley Dench will again be bringing their award-winning apple and pear juices to Kew this month. They set up their juice business in 1990, using fruit from their orchards after a violent hailstorm marked the crop, and their use of traditional pressing methods and slow pasteurisation preserves the real flavour of the fruit. And thanks to popular demand, they’ll also be selling their scrumptious apples and pears plus cordials and jams.
Igor Occhiali makes home-baked artisan breads, using a long fermentation process and organic flours, and shaping his cottage loaves, bloomers, ciabatta and focaccia by hand. He loves his sourdough range, usually brings along a new speciality each month, and can supply gluten-free breads (although at the moment only on request). His stall at Kew Village Market has been such a success that he opened his own shop in Twickenham, called after his young son.
Here you’ll find a mouth-watering range of gourmet shortbread both sweet (such as Almond & Amaretto, Cardamom & Pistachio), savoury (Cheddar, Rosemary & Chilli) and astonishing (Gin & Juniper shortbread, anyone?) plus a few gluten-free flavours too.
We’re delighted to welcome Janet & Dani Signori who fell in love with Sicily nearly 30 years ago and are now highly regarded producers of Sicilian food: extra virgin olive oil (some citrus flavoured), salsas, honey, almonds, orange, lemon and fig conserves – all of the finest, most flavoursome quality.
Jamie Walker is based near Chesil Beach and most of the fish he sells at Sunday’s market will have been caught on the Dorset or Devon coast on Friday. What he sells depends on what the boats bring in, so his stall will have what’s in season from a range including bass, bream, monkfish, lemon sole, mullet, plaice, turbot, brill, lemon or dover sole, oysters and lobster, as well as rope-grown mussels and dived scallops. He’s also likely to bring whole cooked crab, home-made crab soup and fishcakes. Most of his fish will already be gutted and scaled, but any other preparation can be done at the market.
Olive lovers will be spoiled for choice – 23 different types of stuffed and marinated olives! You’ll also find feta cheese, feta-stuffed red and pipeline peppers, sun-blushed and sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, stuffed vine leaves, tapenade, humus, butter bean salad, boquerones, green and red pesto, harissa and marinated garlic.
We’re delighted that the winner of the Fresh Produce Category of the prestigious Soil Food Association Awards has become a regular at the market. The farm has been organic since 1988 and specialises in producing a wide variety of summer and winter vegetables, herbs and salad leaves. Because the quality is so high, you’ll often find that your bag of leaves will last the week – if you can keep them that long!
