Gill Meller, the head chef at River Cottage, acted as a draw to the hundreds who attend ed the opening market. Many visitors were keen to meet Gill and find out how he would cook the best that the market had to offer. Gill went round the stalls
and bought produce which he then cooked on an outdoor wood oven supplied by the
market’s sponsors, Barnolds- wick-based ESSE. The tasty
morsels were distributed to shoppers and stallholders. The market was organised by Gisburn Festival Hall and
its chairman/Giles Bridge, welcomed Gill Meller to Gis
burn to open the first market. In doing so,
the.VIP guest
commented: “Markets such as this are the hub of the commu
nity, putting food at the centre of rural life.” Gill explained that he used
to cook at the market in his native Bridport for three years, which was how he met
