We now stock picture cards by Ben Meek, local young photographer. Ben's pictures capture the natural beauty that surrounds us with a unique artistic perspective. Why not browse our cards during your next visit to the shop? We particularly like to encourage local talent and we really like Ben's photos of the beautiful area we have the privilege to live in.

HURRICANE JONAS

Hurricanes are rare inStogumber. Unlike the snow in the USA we are merely having rain and winds here yet the more subtle impact is that more people stay at home and snuggle up. Quite understandably. For us its a chance to clean shelves and rearrange shelves and remind ourselves how grateful we are for village life. Everything is quiet.

The shopwindow shows of some of our local makers to enhance our commitment to local. If we purchase items locally it is helping money to circulate and be spent locally investing in the talents amongst us . As you are no doubt aware Christmas is around the corner and local gifts are around the corner: knitted items, aprons, bags, chess set, boxes, wooden toys......

After the summer we longed for, after it appeared briefly, and swiftly went we face the mellow autumnal days with mists, and the odd sunny day that prompts walks in the surrounding countryside.

Our shop leaflet has now been delivered to 4000 households in the area and we look forward to welcoming new faces in the shop.

After a week holiday we are getting ready for the next festival in Stogumber the Stogumber Music Festival. Decorations are being put up, lots of doorstep cleaning in order to provide the renowned Stogumber welcome. Apart from the fantastic paid perfomances for which tickets may be available still, there will be dancing, music and some activities free of charge so that a tight budget need not be an obstacle to enjoying the atmosphere on the day. And a new feature this year is the Food and drink showcase. Don't hesitate come and join us.
