Aylsham Food & Craft Market
Food brings people together and in today’s fast-paced world, the simple act of eating together is relaxing and creates a sense of community.
This is where people concerned about the quality of food can come to share ideas and build partnerships.
Affiliated to this group is Slow Food Aylsham which campaigns for healthy food, celebrates the rich food traditions of the area, and works to protect our edible biodiversity.

We’d love to hear about your ideas so come and help us make all these things happen in Aylsham.
