Peterborough Farmers' Market features a wide range of local produce including the delicious fudge hand-made by the Fudge Factory based in Market Deeping.
A recent addition to the produce on offer is lemon curd made with eggs from the farm's new hens which have been rescued and re-homed from a horrible battery farm. The hens are now free to roam and enjoyed their first ever dust bath a couple of weeks ago - bliss when all you've ever known is cramped, dark shed-ness.
If you've got a big garden you could give a battery hen a new lease of life.

They've just run a competition to design a new (more truthful) label for Tesco's bargain bucket chicken.
