				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bloom Collective &#8211; your home of the best gourmet food trucks, boutique makers and extremely good musicians.</p>
<p>Held on the second Saturday evening (weather dependant &#8211; check facebook for updates), at Leamington Domain, Cambridge.</p>
<p>This summer season we have changed from a Sunday morning to Saturday evenings once a month for a beautiful way to wind down after the busy week.</p>
<p>We love Leamington Domain as the miniature trains feature to entertain the little kids and big ones at heart, alongside the playground and the natural amphitheater from the train tunnel sets for a unique surround sound experience.</p>
<p>The market is charismatic, creative and a little bit fancy. We are known for hosting only the best quality makers &#8211; even if this has impacted on the size of our market. It will be a market that you will come to treasure as there are some really great finds.</p>
<p>The 14th of December is our Christmas Market &#8211; which is a bustling market with 60 stalls, and 20 odd food vendors, with every other month hosting between 10-20 odd stalls.</p>
<p>Visit the Bloom Collective website for more information.</p>
