Visit the market on 7th March and take something deliciously tasty home for tea. Not sure what to buy? Then just ask the stallholders. They love to chat to customers and are happy to answer any questions you have about the produce and they'll even give you recipe ideas. If your thoughts have turned to the garden now that Spring has arrived you must visit new stallholder, Jackie Mason. Jackie's stall will be down at the foot of King Edward Street opposite the City Hall and she will be bringing along an interesting selection of evergreen plants including hebes and rhododendrons. The cooking demonstration will be given this month by Thomas Helyer from Kinnaird.
Thomas is one of the youngest members of the team at Kinnaird. Brimming with enthusiasm and knowledge, Thomas has been selected to participate in the Farmers Market due to his passionate love and knowledge of farm fresh ingredients and his background from the farming communities of Blairgowrie. Thomas will bring all that he has learnt from Head Chef Jean-Baptiste, who has just won the Scottish Hotel Award for Head Chef of The Year 2009.Kinnaird is a Relais and Châteaux hotel, nestled under a pine covered crag in a private 7,000 acre sporting estate with 5 miles of private fishing beats in the beautiful landscape of Perthshire, Scotland.
