4 April 2026, 11am – 2pm, Square Deal
April Farmers' Market
Ever wondered how to fix up your holey jumpers?
Need some practice with your mending stitches?
Drop by our stall at the April Huntly Farmers’ Market when artist-in-residence Keng Keng Tang will be on hand to guide you through the processes of darning, patching, and caring for fabric. You’ll be able to practice your skills on the community quilt, currently being created as part of regular Quilting Circles in Square Deal. Since October, these Quilting Circles have seen the creation of hand-stitched patchworks, naturally dyed fabric, and applied quilt blocks, with Keng Keng Tang and invited guest workshop leaders. Through this market mending practice, you’ll be able to leave your mark on a quilt that tells the stories of community curiosity, care and rest. We’ll have tea and blankets on hand to keep us warm, just find us at Square Deal (22 The Square, Huntly AB54 8BR). This activity is free and open to the public, no booking required. AccessibilityThe Deveron Projects market stall is a family friendly event and children are very welcome. The Town Square is closed to traffic during the Huntly Farmers Market.

About the Home Market StallHuntly is a former market town, to which people have long travelled to buy, sell and trade. Markets are equally important for connecting with others, sharing news, organising and celebrating together. Deveron Projects’ stall at Huntly Farmers’ Market contributes to these roots by sharing free activities, initiatives and artist projects that explore and hold space for the vital social role of marketplaces.Each month we share aspects of our work through family-friendly activities and conversation on our stall. From artist’s projects, to our community hub or gardens, local issues to international connections, and much more, drop by to learn what’s going on, to share your perspectives and opinions, and get involved with Deveron Projects. About the Home Programme This event is part of our HOME Programme. Through regular events and artists’ residencies, HOME supports the everyday and creative practices of cooking and eating, chatting and caring, sharing skills and learning together. HOME regular events include Friday Lunch, as well as the monthly Food Chain and a stall at the Huntly Farmers' Market. These events celebrate local knowledge and experiences, and explore what it's like to live and work in and around Huntly. Through this work we aim to build more complex understandings of Huntly and its place in the world. If you'd like to contribute to the HOME Programme, or know someone who you'd love to hear from, then get in touch with us on: info@deveron-projects.com.
