The Chiswick Flower Market being held over the weekend of the Coronation will have a Best of British theme along with free beer and ice cream.

Old Market Place will be festooned with bunting on Sunday 7 May at the market which claims to have the largest selection of British grown flowers in London.

Domestically grown flowers are the most sustainable, scented and seasonal flowers available.

There will be nearly 40 flowers and plant stalls including those from local flower farmers such as Chiswick House and EcoFlowers from Chiswick and Love Day Blooms from Acton. Sellers from as far away as Guildford, Hampshire and Lincolnshire will also be at the market.

All children will be offered a free ice cream from nearby Duci’s in Devonshire Road paid for by sponsorship by Hounslow Council. Adults can get a free pint of London Pride or glass of house wine at the George IV if they spend more than £25 at the market thanks to Fuller’s. To get your free ice-cream or drinks go to the Chiswick Flower Market HQ gazebo where tokens will be available.

The market will also have free live Punch & Judy performances from Robert Styles plus street entertainment from young performers from the local area including the Urban Fox Steel Band, Chiswick School, W4 Youth and the CTA Performing Arts School

Local charity Wild Chiswick will be at the market where visitors can find out more about their work including the installation of swift nesting boxes.

The market is open from 9am until 4pm. Further information is on www.chiswickflowermarket.com.

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least two articles a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT. All payments are made through a secure web site.
