Dorset Food and Drink markets are set to return to the county today.

They are holding their first mini pop up market of 2021 in Dorchester's Borough Gardens from 10am to 2pm.

The markets were introduced to the county last year but were put on hold due to the pandemic.

Dorset Food & Drink held one in Borough Gardens in September and two at the Nothe Fort last Autumn.

Local traders include: Dorset Coffee Company, Lizzie Baking Bird, Ajar Of, Fussels Fine Foods, Weymouth 51, Buckshaw Milk Sheep, Bridge Farm Cider, Elaionaki, Whitese's Delights, Silverstar Jewellery, Piddle Brewery, Fordington Gin and Dorset Wildlife Trust

The Market will also be 'popping up' at Nothe Fort on Sunday 2nd May from 11am - 4pm.

It's a chance to shop local with a great range of local produce, art, and craft; from homemade pastries, tarts, crumbly local cheese, freshly ground blends of hand roasted Dorset coffee beans. Spicy sauces, tasty savouries, olives, locally made gin and cider.

Annual pass holder entry is free.

Bank Holiday admission prices to the Nothe fort apply- £3.50 adults & £1.50 children - as part of the 2021 reopening of outdoor areas of the Fort (including the museum shop and Fort View Café).
