Have you explored The Makers Shop at Windmill Hill City Farm?
The Makers Shop, located in the heart of the farm, is Bedminster’s newest go-to shop for gifts. This vibrant space has been redesigned as a community platform to showcase new makers, bringing together the best in locally made, handcrafted gifts and ethically sourced products.
A unique shopping experience
The Makers Shop has been thoughtfully curated to feature various products from talented local artisans. Visitors can browse beautiful jewellery, stylish clothing, homewares, cards & prints, bath, beauty, and wellness items. Each product showcases the creativity and craftsmanship of local makers and provides a platform for small, independent businesses to shine, capturing their skill and attention to detail. This exciting new space offers customers a unique shopping experience; where else can you visit goats, have a delicious coffee and buy beautiful gifts in the city?
Empowering local makers through enterprise support
Thanks to our collaboration with Brisfest and YTKO, the Makers Shop is more than just a retail space – it’s also a place of opportunity. Local makers can access our Enterprise Support Service, a unique initiative to help pre-start, start-up, and growing businesses thrive. This program provides participants with essential resources, business advice, and networking opportunities, empowering them to develop their enterprises and succeed in the competitive market.
We continuously seek to expand our family of local artists, makers, traders, and producers who can bring fresh and inspiring creations to The Makers Shop. Whether you’re just starting or looking to grow your business, the Makers Shop offers:
- Exposure: Showcase your work in a dedicated space that celebrates local talent.
- Support: Access business development services through our Enterprise Support Service.
- Community: Join a dynamic network of like-minded creatives and entrepreneurs.
We encourage skilled makers interested in joining our ever-growing community to apply via our makers’ database.
