Our first weekend at market
So the weekend is nearly over, and Little Jack Horners has officially completed it's first weekend at market!
Happily (and with a lot of relief) it can be confirmed that both markets, Parliament Hill on the Saturday and Marylebone on the Sunday, went pretty well. We sold almost all the pies we took along, and would have almost certainly sold out if Saturday hadn't been a wash-out. When you start selling at open-air markets, you do learn to appreciate and respect those loyal people who brave their local market when the weather is pretty dismal. It's also clearly apparent and also pretty heart-warming to see how much local markets are valued on such days.
So a special thanks to those hardened characters, and also a big thanks to everyone we met and spoke to over the past two days, and all our friends who turned up to support us.
Next weekend, we'll be visiting Pimlico Market on the Saturday and Queens Park Market on the Sunday, so hopefully we'll see you there.

The contact details are available on the website.

Little Jack Horner's will soon be open for business!!!!
I'm very happy to announce that Little Jack Horner's Ltd will soon be open for business!
We will be starting off proceedings tentatively, in order to find our feet over the first few weeks. Nevertheless, I'm quietly hopeful that it will be a well received success!
Our first four pie recipes are as follows:
1. Spiced Gammon in Apple Juice, Honey Roast Parsnip
2. Minced Beef and Onion
3. Broccoli, Caramelised Onion and Oxford Blue
4. Roast Chicken, Lemon, Red Onion and Potato
Our pies being seasonal, the recipes will change accordingly. As soon as a new pie is being prepared to hit the markets, It'll be posted here first.
As you know from reading the information on the website, we will be selling our pies at London Farmers Markets. We will be venturing far and wide over the capital to test the popularity of the pies, rotating between four locations in all - Parliament Hill, Marylebone, Pimlico and Queens Park. These are all Saturday and Sunday markets. The dates are as follows, with the website location details beneath:
Sat. March 20th: PARLIAMENT HILL
http://www.lfm.org.uk/parliament_hill.asp
Sun, March 21st: MARYLEBONE
http://www.lfm.org.uk/mary.asp
Sat, March 27th: PIMLICO
http://www.lfm.org.uk/pimlico.asp
Sun, March 28th: QUEENS PARK
http://www.lfm.org.uk/queens.asp
After this, the dates will repeat themselves in a MONTHLY order NOT alternate weekends, so weekends 1 and 3 and 5 of each month will always be Parliament Hill and Marylebone. Weekends 2 and 4 will always be Pimlico and Queens Park. Sometimes there are 4 weekends in a month, Sometimes there are 5. Check the "This Weekends Markets" section to the right of this message if you are unsure... Hope that wasn't too complicated! If there are any changes to the market locations in the distant future, it will be posted here as soon as we know.
Of course we will also be selling our pies at the Spencer Arms as well, the location of our kitchens on the Lower Richmond Road in Putney. Please pop down for a visit, it's a lovely warm pub with great staff. It has Black Sheep on tap too. Find the address on our websites contact page if need be.
We cannot wait to meet our customers, and really hope that you enjoy our food! As we gain experience, a home delivery service will be established, so bear that in mind...
Get in touch if there's anything further you'd like to know!
Best Wishes,
James
