Made in north somerset
The following businesses have participated in either the Made in north somerset
‘Open Doors’ events this autumn or the ‘Made in north somerset’ Food and Craft
Market at Tyntesfield. They are just some examples of the great number of local
independent food, drink, art and craft producers whose products are ‘Made in north
somerset’ and we would like to promote them to as wide an audience as possible.
We hope to demonstrate in these ‘Shop Local’ pages the wealth of independent
businesses we have in the area. By supporting some of these businesses through
your purchasing you are keeping a greater percentage of money in the local
economy and supporting the future viability of these businesses.
For those people that want to ‘Shop Local’ and particularly want to purchase local
food and crafts we hope we have made it just that little bit easier – click on any of the
images and you will be taken directly to the website or e-mail address of that
business for more information.
If you are or know of a local business that either makes, sells, produces or grows
local products in North Somerset that might also want to appear on these pages then
please get in touch by e-mailing: [email protected].
