We’re proud of our lovely north Derbyshire home town New Mills. There’s a fantastic selection of shops including an independent second hand book shop, an art & craft Gallery stocking work by local makers & a new artists studio/exhibition/workshops space. As you can see there’s a very arty theme going on and if you visit during Derbyshire Open Arts weekend you’ll find that New Mills has the biggest selection of artists studios to visit, more even than larger centres such as Buxton for example. We hope you like the beautiful New Mills heart by our very own label designer Karl Sinfield by the way.

Even starving artists need to feed themselves and in the village you’ll also find a butcher, a baker and a candlestick – ok, not a candlestick maker – but an truly excellent deli/fresh veg store, Doc Greens. Which is where we’ll be this Saturday, 26 April, serving our very moreish wild mushroom toasties for hungry shoppers to try from 10am until 1pm. It’s the opening weekend of the Peak District Walking Festival so there’s another good reason to get yourself out into the wilds of Derbyshire to come visit. See you tomorrow!
