Little Bird also hopes to give visitors the opportunity to purchase handmade products from crafts, photography, homeware, cheese, jams, as well as locally produced food and drink from Yorkshire artisans.

It also seeks to make the most of the garden location by inviting visitors to stay for coffee and make the most of their time visiting the market.

Tim Gomersall, owner of Tim Gomersall Art and Illustration, shared his love for trading in Harrogate and said: "I started doing the Valley Gardens market at the beginning of this year. It's been a firm favourite of mine since then, it is a beautiful place to show my art, and there's always such a buzz.

“It also helps that a lot of my work is inspired by North Yorkshire, so a lot of visitors connect with it."

Jackie Crozier, Managing Director and owner of Little Bird Markets said: “Our markets showcase some of Yorkshire’s finest small businesses and are a great opportunity for locals and tourists to purchase the most exciting products from the best Yorkshire artisans.

“Valley Gardens is a great family day out and dog friendly. So whether you're coming with the family or simply meeting friends, this is a great way to discover the best of artisan traders that Yorkshire holds."
